About this user

Steve Klink's funky piano style together with his distinct songwriting and arranging abilities makes for a striking blend of jazz, gospel, swing, blues and folk. Taking his audiences on voyages through musical styles, times, and places, Steve is a traveller, "one of those magicians who can wake up the tradition and bring it to life with just ten fingers and eighty-eight keys; who can make old sound new and new sound old...In his playing even more than in swing, blues, and bebop - there is the pure joy of story-telling. And he's got a lot to tell!" (Tip Berlin). Writing for Germany's magazine Der Spiegel, Peter Bölke calls listening to Steve's music "a totally enjoyable experience, not just for jazz fans" And the KulturSpiegel says: "[this young] piano player digs into the keys with such powerful joy that the sparks start to fly."

Who is Steve Klink? A piano player and composer born deep in America's heartland, Steve spends his time working and performing in Europe. With his trio he has released over 12 CDs, the last four of which were released under his own name and have been particularly well-received. Recently Steve's music was featured in a continent-wide broadcast of Europe's national radio stations sponsored by the European Broadcast Union.

The Steve Klink Trio was one of six trios chosen to participate in the BMW World Jazz Award 2009.
