Artist description Expatriate Canadian guitarist/vocalist currently hiding out in the good ol' USA, Steve Mate's music is a unique rock/pop guitar-based hybrid with a distinctly raw, unfinished edge. His first release, whoa!, on Checkmate Records, is a collection that defies categorization. Definitely worth checking out!

Music Style Alternative, rock, pop et al.

Musical Influences Everything I've ever heard, good and bad.

Similar Artists You decide.

Instruments Vocals, Guitars, Acid

Albums whoa!

Press Reviews ***listen.com review***Mate makes music to rock out to -- no dancing, no headbanging, just rocking. Back in the day, this might have been considered hair-metal, due to its hooky choruses backed by Acid Rock guitars.
