Steve Brown

This heavy-hitting electric guitarist is most beneficial known for his recordings using the band Trixter. A later on device he led by himself, 40 Feet. Ringo, appears to have been dropped in the shuffle of rings with names where measurements play a significant component. Trixter got something of the status in the past due ’80s and early ’90s with radio strikes like the challenging “Provide It if you ask me Great,” the uncommon “One inside a Mil,” as well as the extremely accommodating “Surrender.” Originally created in 1983, the brand new Jersey-based band loved an interval of large video rotation on MTV.
