William Steffey continues to be at the forefront of the "post-modern rock" movement: effortlessly integrating honest rock, pop sensibility, and edgy electronica with distant echoes of jazz. Atop the music ride engaging yet intelligent lyrics, tagging the listener at unexpected depths.

Steffey's latest release, Romance of the Spaceways, has been spinning in commercial rotation on 11 stations in the US and has quickly become a favourite of several UK college heads of music-resulting in 10 recent adds across the pond, and many more to come. WS is also hot in Central America, where the album is playing on an archipelago of stations across Costa Rica and Nicaragua. The 12 song cd, propelled by its ethereal-pop single 'Sanctuary', will be serviced to college stations in the United States this coming autumn.

William had been hiding in the servant's quarters of the Chicago music mansion for years- playing hired gun to scene stalwarts Marathon Man (on drums), brief but potent cool-rockers Spot and Billy (on guitar), and anonymous production guru to the Blue Meanies (Sick Sick Six live video, as well as key tracks on the albums "Blue Meanies" and "Pave the World").

In 2001, Steffey finally struck out on his own with the entirely self-produced album Roadstar, featuring 11 tracks that brave the no-mans-land between electronica, honest hard rock, and 70s FM songwriting. The cd was added to more than 250 US college stations as well as a handful of cherry-picked commercial specialty shows. Upon its debut, Roadstar hit #3 on the CMJ most added chart. The cd also made its way overseas where it enjoys airplay in the UK, Spain, France, Croatia, Japan, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua.

In 2005, Steffey released love song for kyrie snow. With low-key vocals and new millennium soundscapes, the five song collection melds rock, pop and electronia, and features a remix of the title track by Chicago legend Felix Miklik. "Hands down, it's a break-up album," William explains. With hyperpersonal lyricsim, WS is looking to connect with the rest of the cast-aside and forlorn. "Sometimes it takes more than love to make a relationship work." The songs "Stronger Than Love" and "Brutal" explore these concepts in bold new ways. The EP was played on numerous college radio stations, as well as key international stations listed above.

William is currently working on his next release, Glide, slated for release in Spring 2008. When he's not doing that you can probably find him at a local coffee shop with laptop in tow, using wi-fi to aggressively promote his sound across the world wide web and beyond...
