He played as percussionist with the National Symphony Orchestra of Ireland, contemporary music ensembles and many visiting jazz artists. Stephen has worked all over the world with many great musicians and is well known for his versatility and accompanying skills as the drummer of choice for numerous jazz legends from the US.

“He has a fluid style that shifts gears through simultaneous jazzy chording, leads, and bass lines, while weaving in and out of musical thoughts faster than a Formula One racer.” - San Diego Reader

“The notes spin out of the songs with such finesse and musical agility, it’s hard to believe he has only 10 fingers and six strings.” - San Francisco Chronicle

“The melodies and textures and harmonies he coaxes out of an acoustic guitar are absolutely spellbinding.” - Guitar Player Magazine
