We’re delighted to announce legendary drum master Steve White of The Style Council, Paul Weller, Trio Valore and more is coming to The Vale with his new band, promoting his latest album ‘Soul Drums’ (Acid Jazz Records).

Steve White came to fame as drummer with The Style Council, appearing on the majority of the band’s recordings throughout the ’80s, touring the world, and appearing at ‘Live Aid’ in 1985.

When the Style Council broke up, Steve co-founded his own group with saxophonist Alan Barnes – The Jazz Renegades – who were one of the first bands from the ‘Acid Jazz’ movement. Steve went on to perform with Galliano, The Young Disciples, JTQ and more around that time.

Steve White joined the Paul Weller Movement in 1991 and continued to record and perform with Weller throughout the first decades of his solo career. He has also recorded albums with Mick Talbot from the Style Council as Talbot/White and the Players group with Mick Talbot and Damon Minchella. 2008 saw Steve form the highly acclaimed Trio Valore with Damon Minchella and in 2015 Damon and Steve formed The Family Silver with ex-Mother Earth vocalist Matt Deighton.

Steve White has also appeared live with Oasis, The Who.
