Rafe Stepto at Branded Saloon

Rafe Stepto

Rafe Stepto is a singer-songwriter & multi-instrumentalist with a smokey voice that brings to mind Al Green. He will be playing a solo set on guitar and piano Thursday, October 3 from 8:30-9:15 at Branded Saloon in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn.

Stepto will sing original songs from his current project “Kiss Attack”, which employs a wide variety of jazz, funk, and even Brazilian chord changes along with 21st century production techniques and can loosely be described as “global soul.”

“Change” is a socially critical song about belief. Stepto says,”Religion is like McDonald’s. If you didn’t have it then, you’re not gonna.”

Though Stepto has recorded “Kiss Attack” as a solo venture, he seeks collaboration from the Brooklyn musical community. With little online presence, Stepto’s huge talent is a hidden gem well worth discovering.

Hear him yourself at Branded Saloon. 603 Vanderbilt Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11238
