Utilizing a combination of pulsating percussion and rich acoustic instrumentation, Steve transports the listener back in time thousands of years to an era of forgotten civilizations. Ancient ruins, mystic temples and sacred people aligned their worlds with the heavens in order to seek perfect harmony. "Ancient Wonders" recaptures this harmony with Steve's classic guitar tones, flutes, violins and percussion.

Born in Victoria, British Columbia, Steve has always enjoyed the surroundings of majestic mountains and old growth rain forests. These scenic landscapes have had a significant role in influencing his musical direction - and this album is all the proof you will need. The SoundScapes series, of which "Acoustical Scenery" was the first, has been well received throughout the world with distribution in more than 25 countries

Featuring extremely soothing melodic compositions, "Acoustical Scenery" blends acoustic instrumentation with the rhythmic backdrops of nature. Release Magazine in their June review called it "An absolutely breathtaking CD".
