Considered one of the most charismatic Live performers at work today, the original Cockney Rebel tours with a full 6-piece rock band and also fronts the Steve Harley Acoustic Band.
Music is very much still his first love.
“We see the world and play to great audiences; how good is that! I see great cities and their galleries and museums in our down-time, beautiful landscapes from the Arctic Circle to the Mediterranean coast, all in my life as a touring musician. It’s still the greatest job on earth!”
Harley said recently.
The Live shows include the big hit singles, like Judy Teen, Mr Soft, Love’s A Prima Donna, the legendary Sebastian, as well as the evergreen Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me). That song is noted by PRS as one of the most-played songs in history on British Radio.
Steve was awarded a Gold Badge of Merit by the British Academy of Songwriters, and a Lifetime Achievement Award for Acoustic Music by the British Festival of Acoustic Music in 2018.
Recent critical acclaim has included such comments such as:
“A consummate professional at the top of his game”
and
“I doubt there was a better gig anywhere in the world last night. Seriously”
– Daily Mail reporter.
Rod Stewart, who has covered Steve’s song A Friend For Life, describes him as
“One of the greatest lyricists Britain has produced.”
Mojo commented:
“Harley creates songs of deep beauty, full of life’s experiences” and The Times wrote: “An extraordinary concert”.
