Steve Jinski is a highly acclaimed Folk/Americana singer songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist, as seen on BBC One The One Show. ‘This is lovely stuff. You can hear all the love that’s gone into it’ - Bob Harris on BBC Radio 2.

Steve Jinski is a songwriter, singer, performer, musician, and music educator. Born to an Irish mother and a Polish father and brought up in Liverpool, Steve is a truly international artist, having toured the UK, Ireland, Europe, and Scandinavia as a solo artist and with his group, The Festival Band.

Steve has made numerous festival appearances and opened shows for David Gray, Richard Thompson, Eddie Reader, The Proclaimers, Eliza Carthy and Rick Wakeman, to name just a few. Radio and TV appearances include BBC 1's The One Show.

Equally at home in large concert venues and small intimate acoustic settings, Steve draws on influences that include acoustic, folk, Americana, indie and blues, adding his own unique voice while accompanying himself on acoustic guitar, electric guitar, and piano. Add some acapella, a wailing harmonica, interesting cover versions and some tall tales, and the positive vibe will leave you feeling glad you came to see the show.

Steve has released four albums, two EPs and numerous singles. He has just released a brand new double album - Muscle Memory (available on CD, downloads, and streaming) that steps forward whilst looking back. Originally a project to revisit, remix and rework Steve’s debut album - Eventually - it grew into a collection of newer songs, timeless Steve Jinski classics, and some gems which were overlooked at the time of their inception.
