Artist description With a nearly operatic voice and stunningly artful songs, Steve Erwin has some how managed to fly beneath the radar of the folks who hand out awards. Despite this, he has quietly influenced many D.C. songwriters, and like his one-time accompanist Danny Gatton, Steve Erwin is rightfully regarded as the "Best Unknown" artist in D.C. today.

Press Reviews Neil Fagan, of nationally distributed Performing Songwriter Magazine says "Danny Gatton's chops accentuate Erwin's first-rate tunes so well, you'd think they'd been playing together all their lives."The Washington Post described Steve as "an intelligent male thirty-something voice; more sensible than sensitive, more intelligent than clever; and he has the gift of knowing that a view is better than an angle."
