 , Ohio in 1977, Steve moved to the Bay Area to play with the Escovedo 
 family (Coke, Pete, and Sheila) which led to a tour w/ Carlos Santana.
  He returned to Dayton in 1978 to join Slave as drummer and eventual l
 ead singer for four albums. Steve witnessed the birth of hip hop first
  hand, as artists like The Sugarhill Gang and Grandmaster Flash opened
  for him in the early 80’s.In 1982, Steve left Slave, releasing five
  more albums for Atlantic Records with a new lineup, peaking with the 
 top 10 R&B hit “Dancin’ In The Key Of Life”. He was nominated fo
 r the 1986 NAACP Image Award. By 1991, Steve stepped away from the rec
 ording industry altogether, to devote his life to his serving God. Dur
 ing this time, Steve continued to study different genres of music, fro
 m gospel to jazz, classical to blues, electronic to world music, and L
 atin to hip hop. This fusion of spirituality and musical study resulte
 d in the 2009 self released “Pure Thang”, Steve’s first album in
  over 20 years. Stones Throw Record's Dam-Funk heard “Pure Thang” 
 and reached out to Steve to propose collaborating on an album. With Da
 m on the tracks and Steve on the vocals and lyrics, something inter-ge
 nerational has been born. While finishing touches on his LP with Dam-F
 unk, Steve is jumping into this full steam ahead, practicing hard with
  an all new band and starting to do spot dates around the US with arti
 sts like DJ Quik and Q Tip who are more than up for the idea of sharin
 g the stage with someone who influenced and inspired their careers. A 
 new chapter is upon us. http://www.stevearringtonm​inistries.com/htt
