STEVE ROSS rose to fame as a cabaret entertainer during his lengthy sojourns at New York’s fabled Algonquin Hotel and Ted Hook’s Backstage in the late 1970’s. He has spent the ensuing decades singing and playing in smart clubs and swank parties all over the world. The Ritz in London, the Crillon in Paris and the Imperial Hotel Tokyo, in addition to festivals in Hong Kong, Perth and Spoleto – these are but highlights of Steve’s appearances on six continents. On the airwaves Steve has been the performer/host for radio series for both the BBC and National Public Radio. In 1992 he was voted outstanding singer-instrumentalist by the Manhattan Association of Cabarets. Also in that year Steve made his Off-Broadway debut in his own tribute to Fred Astaire, I WON’T DANCE. He continues to tour in solo concerts, master classes, theatrical engagements and symphonic Pops appearances.

His performances have taken him to venues around the world, bringing audiences shows such as Set to Music: Steve Ross Celebrates Noel Coward, The Pops Goes British, Cole Porter Meets Fats Waller, L’Amour, the Merrier, An American in Paris, My Manhattan, Rhythm and Romance, Steve Ross: Live at the Algonquin, and Travels With My Piano to name just a few.

Following a show in its city, the San Francisco Chronicle wrote: “Attending a Ross performance is like opening a treasure chest of great, often rare, songs. No one performing today is his equal. They just don’t make ‘em like this anymore.”
