About this Event

Our next Industry Access Sessions features an up close and personal sit-down with UK vocalist / producer / artist Steve Spacek. As an artist, Steve has been on the forefront pushing the boundaries of music in soulful aesthetics, innovation and technology, best illustrated in his many artist's projects and collaborations including Mos Def, Thundercat, the late great Leon Ware, iconic producer J.Dilla, Johnny Marr (The Smiths) and Dave Ball (Soft Cell) to name a few.

The session will include an in-depth talk with Steve as he takes you through his career and his approach to making music and collaborating. During this session, Steve will also illustrate his approach to making music via iOS to complete his latest projects and how he is integrating this back into traditional methods.

This session will be accompanied by an audience Q&A and an introduction to the Abbey Road Institute.
