One of Canada’s busiest artists, Steve Marriner has proven himself to be a versatile and highly skilled musician, song writer and producer. In addition to winning 9 Maple Blues Awards as a harmonica player and vocalist on his own, he has won another 10 Maple Blues, 2 Junos, 2 Canadian Indie Music, and 1 American Blues Music awards as one third of swamp rockers Monkey Junk.

Steve blows harmonica like the best of them, and is a fine bassist, drummer and B3 player. He also sings like a bird. He is blues-rock giant Colin James’ touring sideman, with whom he’s performed at Massey Hall in Toronto, Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Austin City Limits and the Troubadour in L.A. among the a-list rooms he’s appeared at. He toured the world with blues/folk legend Harry Manx.

Steve is an in-demand studio musician who’s often at Ganaraska Studio recording and producing albums (over 40 to date) with fellow musician Jimmy Bowskill, and has his own production company, Marriner Custom Sounds.
