STEVE HOLLEY - PAUL McCARTNEY & WINGS

Steve Holley was born into a musical family in London, England. When Elton John was restructuring his own band, Steve was invited to join him in the studio to work on "A Single Man." It was then that Denny Laine moved to Laleham, the same village in which Steve had grown up. The two became friends and would quite often see each other socially. One evening Denny was having some guests over to his house for a party and Steve was asked along. Little did Steve know that Denny's boss, Paul McCartney, would also be in attendance. It wasn't long after that Paul McCartney himself called Steve and invited him up to MPL's London office for a proper audition. During his tenure with Paul McCartney's Wings, Steve played on the Back to the Egg album and various other projects McCartney was involved with, including the Concerts for Kampuchea and the "Goodnight Tonight" single. Later, Steve worked on many prestigious recordings including Julian Lennon's debut, plus a three year stint in the Joe Cocker band with whom he performed "A Little Help from my Friends" in Berlin on the day that the wall came down. Steve has also recorded several albums with various country and blues artists, including Katy Moffat and Grammy-nominated Junior Brown.
