The blues may not have been born in the state of Wisconsin, but it sure lives there. Born on February 23, 1999, Racine native Stephen Hull (pronounced “Steven”), decided that he would help keep the blues alive by playing his heart and soul out on the guitar at the tender age of 14. Dubbed a young B.B. King, Stephen’s influences from the man himself are readily showcased whenever possible.
As a twice semifinalist at the Wilson Center Guitar Competition by the age of 16, Stephen has garnered national attention for his attention to detail and guitar solo style that closely mimics that of Albert King and Stevie Ray Vaughan. From the streets of Milwaukee and Chicago to the streets of Memphis and Dallas, Stephen brings the blues to the people. Currently performing live for various audiences and touring with various collaborating acts, Stephen is also working on several recording opportunities.
Though his roots are in blues, you can believe that R&B, soul, and Jazz music are essential parts of his musical vocabulary. From Duke Ellington, to B.B. King, to Eric Gales, Stephen is a true music lover looking to share his love of music with you and leave his mark on the world. Can you dig it?
