Steve Pilgrim is an artist and musician with over 20 years global touring experience. Starting out as a drummer with Liverpool 'Bandwagon' band The Stands (alongside bands like The Coral and The Zutons), Steve went on to play with John Power and Cast.

As a solo artist and singer-songwriter he’s produced five studio albums, receiving the praise of fellow musicians and critics alike.

The material sits proudly in the song-writing idiom of the acoustic folk/pop artists of the 60s while exploring the challenges of living and loving in the 21st century. Steve’s songs are simultaneously celebratory and melancholy, intimate and honest, bringing into focus the struggles we all face and the humility that unites us. 

Over the last 16 years Steve has been touring as part of Paul Wellers band, providing vocal, acoustic and drums, and sharing the stage with the likes of Noel Gallagher, Corrine Bailey-Rae, Tom Jones, Roger Daltry, Kelly Jones, Jools Holland and many more. 

Catching Steve solo is a great opportunity to hear his songs, up close and personal. 

“Steve Pilgrim is the music industry’s best kept secret. He’s an exceptional songwriter” GQ Magazine 

“One of the great understated modern songsmiths. I love Pilgrims voice, his lyrics, his sense of melody.  I hope people get to hear his music, it’s really something special” Paul Weller
