Blessed with a soulful voice that alternates between smooth and rough tones, Steven fell in love with music at a very young age.
Born Francesco Dell’Orco in Milan, Italy, he grew up listening to a range of folk, rock and roll, soul, and his father’s classical music collection.
Landing in the UK in 2006, he played the acoustic London circuit garnering a love for all things British.
It was during an exhaustive 30-date tour of the East coast of America in 2010 that the songs for the debut album One Way (Deluxe Edition 2013) came into being.
Steven’s debut album was described by the press as “an entertaining guide to some of the finer points of the musical anatomy, with vocals that have all the low-key passion of James Morrison and Paulo Nutini, the whimsical, yet intense, emotion of David Gray with a soulful, continental twist".
His debut single Puppets On TV, released by Right Track Records/Universal on 26th September 2011, has been featured on BBC Radio 2, BBC London 94.9, Radio Caroline and Cool FM 97.4 in the UK and in well over 50 radio stations around the world.
