Music by Joyce Corbert

The combination of Motown and Soul creates a body moving experience you won’t want to miss.
Music by Steve Junot
In the last 20 years, Steve has played over 5000 gigs.
When you ask him how he's lasted so long, he'll give you one big reason. "I realized early on that it's not about me... it's about playing what the audience wants to hear."
He loves giving 'em what they want so that they can have fun.
" If the audience is in the mood to chat with each other, I'll play some laid back, softer stuff so that they can chat. Or if they're in the mood to really listen, dance or cut up and I'll deliver that too. It's all about reading the crowd and giving them what they want so they have a great time. "
Sometimes someone in the crowd will make a request, other times Steve just scans the audience and seems to be able to pinpoint the right song at the right time. And with a repertoire of over 1000 songs, he can pretty much handle any audience.
But his favorite is taking requests.
"I love when I get a crowd who has eclectic tastes. One of my favorite nights was when someone requested an Elvis song. Right after I played it, someone else requested a Lil' Wayne song. Man, that's about as far reaching as it gets in a two song span, but I loved it! And so did the crowd."
To sum it up, Steve has the repertoire and experience to deliver the fun!

Music from Romantics for Lovers, Past Present and Future
Recently we were featured in the Tampa Bay Times for our work in Ybor City at the Traditional Pub Crawl and the 71st Annual Fiesta Day celebration. We had rave reviews at the Naples Star Ball. The ROMANTICS are favorites with the Jazz Club of Sarasota and recently performed their Jazz Festival where we featured John Lamb who was bassist for Duke Ellington. We are performing at Vinoy Renaissance in St. Pete (High Jazz, Standards), Woody's River Roo (Traditional Jazz, Rock) in Ellenton and Valentine's day at Captiva Island. The ROMANTICS served as the house band at Coolinary on Main Street, Sarasota and Amore by Andrea (5 Star Restaurant) Longboat Key. We have performed at a variety of venues including , Tampa Museum of Art, Ringling College of Art & Design, Hilton Downtown, Tampa, Z's on Main Street, Harbour Island Tampa and Fat Tuesday at Duval's Fresh Seafood. I have also served as sideman for many regional bands and acts including Bare Facts (50's, 60's and 70's Pop), NuJazz (Smooth Jazz, Second Line, R&B), Stone Crab Steve Arvey (Beach, Blues, Rock), The Hoo Doos (Louisiana Jazz, Blues, Rock), Nexxlevel (R&B), Democracy (Reggae) and Smash (Rock).
WHERE ARE WE FROM?
I owned and performed with The Leon Merian Band (16-piece big band). Leon was a famous sideman and lead trumpeter for Elvis, Sinatra and The Burt Parks Orchestra where his 2nd and 3rd trumpeters were Doc Severinsen and Clark Terry. Leon was in fact replaced by Louis Armstrong on the famous Worldwide Ambassadors Tour
