They say all good things are from Philadelphia. The Philly cheesesteak, Philly pretzels, Frankie Avalon, James Darren, Fabian, the list is timeless and endless. STEVE ABBRUZZI is no exception to the rule.

Born and raised in South Philadelphia, there was always the smell of meatballs and gravy on Sundays and the sound of Italian music always filled the air. Steve came from a long line of family musicians.

His grandfather was a great jazz piano player, and his uncle still at 84 plays multiple instruments and sings in many languages. Steveâs mother plays three instruments and sings, while his father has been leading worship at their home church for over 30 years.

They say the apple donât fall far from the tree. At the age of eight Steve stared and sang in the musical â Oliver âin Philadelphia. He studied music and trumpet for over 10 years under the supervision of Mr. Joseph Primavera, lead violinist and conductor for the Philadelphia Orchestra. Steve had the unique opportunity to study Italian opera and voice theory under the tutelage of Mario Lanzaâs voice teacher for one year.

With the desire and ability to entertain, Steve started singing and writing gospel music. This eventually produced 2 albums and a recording contract with Refuge Records in Nashville. Having written, arranged and co-producing both albums, one of Steveâs original songs made airplay and hit the charts in Canada. Traveling with a well known author and celebrity, providing music, Steve has sung in many of the largest venues in America as well as performing on the 700 Club in Virginia Beach, on several occasions.
