Steve Hopper

He was born a raised in Tennessee halfway between Memphis and Nashville, just north of Muscle Shoals Alabama.

Bio

   Early on Steve had tried his hand with local country-rock bands but lost interest. Turning his focus on songwriting, performing became a means of getting his songs heard at songwriter showcases. He occasionally was asked to do house gigs, playing a mix of covers and originals. A friend at the marina where Steve worked was looking for someone to play a Jimmy Buffett themed party, Steve, a lifelong parrot head had taught himself to play guitar with a Jimmy Buffett songbook . Unknowingly he had found his niche. He soon began performing every weekend, then several nights a week and before he knew it he had a new full-time job. Twenty years later he is still going strong playing regularly around the mid-south and special events from Memphis to Key West.
