Stephen j is a talented multi-instrumentalist & songwriter, performing both as a solo artist and with his band The Luckies. Drawing influences from far and wide, Stephen performs a mixture of soulful and mellow material, with bouncy head-bopping pop grooves, always with an insightful lyrical depth and wit so seldom seen in these days of throw-away pop music. 

This page contains both finished material and demos. The finished material on display here was Produced by Laurie Latham (Squeeze/The Police/The Blockheads) and recorded at both SARM West and Helicon Mountain Studios. The demo's are recorded in a mixture of places, from Stephen's bedroom and the back of his van, to the drum room in which he teaches kit/percussion and Live Band Workshops. 

All of the material here, as well as some other as-yet unrecorded material, will eventually become a part of his first album.
