"Ever since I was about seven, I've always had a tune in my head..."
Meet Steve is a short film about a remarkably talented individual. Steve has been writing, playing and recording his own music for more than twenty years. He is an amazingly prolific musician, with hours and hours of recordings - but he is totally uninterested in self-promotion. No record company or radio station has heard his music. He just keeps writing, playing and recording, in his bedroom, for himself.
