Playing a solidly booked schedule of weekends from month to month with a dedicated following, this X-rated rocker and his band are probably the most completely entertaining act to play on any music circuit; to include in his show a variety of rock & roll, rockabilly, comedy, X-rated stage encounters, and a brutal X-rated attitude about love, life, and the pursuit of happiness and--oh yes, women!! A favorite target for Stevie's liberation of thought...ladies this show is not for the squeamish or the faint of heart, for Stevie can tear your heart out with his searing and cutting tongue during a good night's performance,-- but all in all it's all in fun.
With songs on his album titles "I know what You Want," "Looking at Her Ass," and "The Girl With the Scab," you just know where this no-holds-barred rocker is ready to take you...and oh yes, don't forget to watch your back when the "Padre Pio Trio" rolls into "Old Brown Eye is Back," a single release which is on Stevie's own Snorko Records, available as is his new album "Live From the South Side."
Stevie's live show is loaded with good times and an unbelievable "crowd participation" that has to be seen and heard to grasp the understanding of it all.
Beyond all the craziness and ass-grabbing, there is a talent here that must be exposed. Stevie and his band, bass player Tommy Biondo and drummer Russ DeLuca are three of Chicago's premier musicians.
Stevie is a very accomplished guitarist whose Telecaster tones can be rivaled by few. Not only a great guitarist, Stevie is also a fine technician; having had a hand in designing a line of professional amplifiers for Ampeg. Stevie is equally adept in the recording studio where for years he had his own studio that he built and then recorded and produced all his own work.

With the demise of "Theatre", Tommy then hooked up with Don Griffin and the Griff band for two and a half years as vocalist and bassist. Then as time went by, he found his way to the Stevie Starlite project where he has become an integral part of the show. Tommy adds a dimension of driving bass with his killer bass sound as he prowls the stage in his full length leather jacket which has become his playing trademark. Tommy's addition to Stevie's wild stage antics makes for a great performance and a great crowd pleaser night after night.

The combination of talent with these three musicians, along with the zaniness and scathing tongue of Stevie and the addition of the fourth man in the band- that is the crowd and its participation, a night out with Stevie Starlite is sure to be a rocking and hilarious experience to remember.
