ABOUT THE BAND

Steve first discovered Queen while attending a Mets game at Shea Stadium. As the bases were loaded, it was "We Will Rock You" that caught his attention! He's into songwriting, recording, and really digs playing the guitar. Check out Steve's latest album "The Good Wheel". "Be Like Alfonso" and give it a listen!

Memorable stops from Almost Queen tour include...


Stone Pony Summer Stage

Asbury Park, NJ

Stone Pony Summer Stage is a special stop for Almost Queen, who consistently pack the 5000-person capacity venue with their electrifying performances. Joe and Steve, who hail from New Jersey, have been making the rounds in Asbury Park for years. Some of their earliest performances took palce on stage inside at The Stone Pony. They love to soak up the sun on the beach and rock the stages at all the local music spots. Asbury Park holds a special place in our hearts, and we are grateful for all of our fans who come out to rock with us at The Pony year after year.

The Capitol Theatre

Port Chester, NY

Almost Queen is always thrilled to have the opportunity to perform at the historic Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY. This venue, rich in music history, is a special place to perform. The band loves to visit their friends at The Cap and perform for the beautiful people who come out to see them rock this special venue. The sold-out shows at The Cap have been some of the band's most memorable performances.

Party In The Park

Rochester, NY

We always look forward to the biggest party of the summer, appropriately called Party in the Park! Each year, thousands of people gather in Downtown Rochester to celebrate the music of Queen. It's always a joy to visit our friends and fans in Rochester and be a part of such a fun event.
