There’s a definite correlation between Stephen Duros’ career as a successful touring lighting director for pop legends like TOTO and Olivia Newton-John and his emergence as a bright, exciting electric and acoustic guitar-driven recording artist with his mood swinging from rock to meditative and everything in between. The NYC-themed album, THE MANHATTAN SESSIONS highlights Duros’ skillset as he artfully infuses his expansive musical palette with exotic elements of reggae and Arabic rhythms into pop and Smooth Jazz. The guitarist has absorbed a level of confidence and comfort in his signature blend of contemporary jazz after lengthy stints playing and recording with Grammy nominated artist Ottmar Liebert Stephen has also worked with Simon Phillips , Mike Porcaro, Jeff Pierre, Shahin Shahida, Eric Hansen, Lawson Rollins, Shem Von Schroeck, Dan Sistos, Jim Stubblefield and more. New single coming February 28th! Also a new collaboration track with Shahin Shahida from Shahin & Sepehr, in the works! Thanks so all who have been listening, sharing and adding my music to your Spotify playlists!
