SUMMARY:Steve Oliver & The Grainger Brothers
DESCRIPTION:Steve Oliver appearing at The Tin Pan in Richmond\, VA\n\n\nBox Office: The Tin Pan charges lower fees for box office versus online sales. Our box office is open Tues-Sat 12PM-5PM. Please visit us during those hours or call 804-447-8189. \nSeating: We assign seats in order of when you purchase your tickets. All reservations are subject to a food and drink minimum of $15 per guest. Gratuity of 20% is automatically added to all food and beverage purchases. \n \n\n\nSteve Oliver\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram  \n\n\n\nSteve Oliver will be joined on stage by Gary Grainger and Greg Grainger (Acoustic Alchemy\, Grainger)\, keyboardist Chris Fischer (Spyro Gyra) and vocalist Sandra Kenny. \nWith a career spanning nearly 30 years in music\, multi-instrumentalist\, singer\, songwriter\, engineer and producer Steve Oliver is still being heard each day on contemporary / smooth jazz radio around the world. \nWith his latest project “A New Light”\, Oliver finds his way back into the glow of “smooth jazz” radio with a collection of originals that will surely please fans that have known his work for decades. Working with hit co-producer Michael “B” Broening\, as well as longtime friend\, saxophonist Jeff Kashiwa (featured on the title track)\, legendary drummer Vinnie Colaiuta\, and bassist Larry Antonino\, Steve again conveys his deep passion for memorable compositions\, subtle electronics\, world influences\, pop melodies\, and jazz intricacies. Carrying on the themes of his past albums such as “Radiant” and “Illuminate”\, “A New Light” brings a familiar and warm tone with a few surprises. \nSteve’s career has produced 14 full-length albums including a “Best Of” album\, a “LIVE” album\, a Christmas album\, a solo guitar album (2022’s “Sojourn”)\, and a duo album with hit keyboardist and long-time collaborator Brian Simpson which reached the #1 spot on the Billboard and Amazon jazz sales charts (2019’s “Unified”). He’s achieved multiple #1 Billboard hits and over a dozen Top Ten hits as a solo artist and producer in the smooth or contemporary jazz formats. \nAs a touring musician\, Steve has headlined iconic venues and festivals worldwide such as Playboy Jazz Festival\, Catalina Island Jazztrax Festival\, Mallorca Smooth Jazz Festival in Spain\, Seabreeze Jazz Festival\, Rehoboth Beach Jazz Festival\, Berks Jazz Festival\, Newport Beach Jazz Festival\, Dave Koz Cruises\, Pizza Express London\, Yoshi’s Oakland\, Thornton Winery Temecula\, Scullers Boston\, O’Hare Jazz Festival Chicago\, Perfect Note Atlanta\, Spaghettini Seal Beach\, South Jazz Kitchen Philadelphia\, Middle C Jazz Charlotte\, and many others. \nIn recent years\, Steve has established a reputation for being a highly-respected “one stop shop” resource for composing\, producing\, performing\, engineering\, and editing a wide scope of projects including contemporary music\, television spots\, and soundtracks for feature films. He has co-written and produced tracks with GRAMMY award winning World Music pianist Omar Akram and he composed\,edited\, and mixed music for the 2022 film “Lee’d The Way”\, from Oscar and Emmy winning Director Richard L. Anderson. \nHis compositions can also be heard on albums by contemporary jazz stars such asVincent Ingala\, Brian Simpson\, Paul Taylor\, and Will Donato. \nSteve’s own recordings have featured notable musicians from the world of contemporary jazz\, rock and pop\, including Nathan East\, Vinnie Colaiuta\, Harvey Mason\, Eric Marienthal\, Leland Sklar\, Nelson Rangell\, Jeff Kashiwa\, Jimmy Haslip\, Steve Madaio\, Tom Schuman\, Brandon Fields\, Brian Bromberg\, Rick Braun\, Alan Hewitt\, Bob Baldwin\, Michael Paulo\, Joel Taylor\, Steve Reid\, Darren Rahn\, Melvin Davis\, Warren Hill\, Paul Taylor\, Gerald Veasley\, Will Donato\, Will Kennedy\, Rob Mullins\, Billy Sherwood\, Scott Ambush\, Jim Peterik\, Mel Brown\, Walle Larsson\, Larry Antonino\, Tony Guerrero\, and Greg Vail. \nFor Steve Oliver\, music is therapy and a welcomed diversion from the current world climate. With a plethora of legacy hits to his credit including “High Noon”\, “Fun In The Sun”\, and “Global Kiss”\, Oliver has no plans to stop recording or touring anytime soon. But he is just as comfortable in his studio being a creator\, adviser\, composer\,producer\, and mentor for others.
