Known for his work with acclaimed ‘80s hit-makers Asia and prog-rock pioneers, Steve Howe has been a transformative force in rock since the 1960s. His playing took classical precision and jazz-inspired improvisational techniques, and smashed them together with a little rock n’ roll muscle to help create the sound of progressive rock. He made signature contributions to albums like Fragile and Close to the Edge.
Beyond guitar, Howe is a true multi-instrumentalist who’s just as at home on the pedal steel, lute, mandolin, and more. Whether he’s composing solo pieces, serving as a session musician, or leading his own projects, Steve brings a rare musicality and inventive spirit to every job and stage.
