Steve (www.steve-turner.co.uk) comes from a family of singers & concertina players; his grandfather sang & played concertina in the 1890s. In the 1970s he belonged to the Geordie band Canny Fettle & won the Melody Maker 'Stars of the 80s' national competition. His English concertina playing is beautifully inventive & dazzling. He is also an excellent singer, cittern & mandolin player & his latest (5th.) album has received outstanding reviews.
