Steve Moakler

Growing up, Steve Moakler thought that he would one day become a teacher, while his mother vowed he would be a minister, and his teachers believed he would become an actor. "Being a singer/songwriter enables me to do all of those things," Steve explains. "Its funny how all of those little pieces fit together and have become what I want to do," and thats exactly what Steves music portrays; lessons are taught, spirituality is expressed, and Steves innate stage presence is nothing short than that of a professional performer. At the age of 18, Steve Moakler has held the role of front man in two bands as well as making a growing attempt at a solo music career. Having played at many venues throughout the greater Pittsburgh area, Steves goal is to take his music on the road, reaching more people in order to make a name for himself and his music. With such lofty goals, Steve feels secure in his aspirations. Theres always uncertainty, but thats nothing to be afraid of. My fear is that I wont pursue my dreams to the fullest, but I have control over that and I wont let it happen, he declares. Talented and modest, determined, but laid-back, personable and insightful, Steve Moakler has a promising future musically; however he would be the last to admit it. Steve has evolved as a performer from his days as an early teen in his first band to his time as a young adult stepping into a solo career. Although Steve is young, he has experience that has taught him about the profession he has chosen to aggressively sought after. An important trait that draws listeners to Steve is his strong love for music which is clearly seen through his live performances. Whether Steve is playing at a large venue in front of hundreds of people or at a coffee shop with a handful of people, attendees can expect a well-rehearsed, passionate performance. Steves sincere lyrics sung over his catchy, mellifluous melodies, coupled with his down-to-earth qualities and apparent disregard for his undeniable talent, has listeners not only finding music that they both enjoy and can relate to, but also finding a friend. Steve Moakler has the ability to put all our deepest thoughts into words and add a rhythm that expresses exactly what we are feeling. He is a release for our conscious at the end of the day. Steve is multi-talented in the most perfect way for what he ultimately desires to do in life. I feel very blessed to have that ability, I dont think there is anything better than that, he comments. Its a unique gift and I am very thankful for that. Steve would have made a great teacher, minister, or actor, but after listening to his music, his true path in life is understood.
