Blues guitarist Cliff Stevens brief bio
Blues guitarist Cliff Stevens has been playing guitar professionally for more than 35 years,or “longer than I care to admit”. Cliff Stevens’ original influences were the British and British and American blues guitarists of the day, Eric Clapton and Johnny Winter. In 1968, he saw the band Cream in Montreal. “Clapton just jammed all night long and I was blown away. I then saw Johnny Winter And four times in 1970 and memorized every lick I could”. Stevens says that when he was thirteen “all we did was jam slow blues all day…that’s how I Iearned to play” – at the legendary ‘coffee house’ in Montreal. Known as a breeding ground for Canadian blues guitarists (Frank Marino, Riccardo Formosa, Bobby Cohen, Jimmy James) it had a short-lived existence. It was about this time that he acquired his treasured 1961 Gibson SG Les Paul that he still uses today, mostly for slide guitar. Blues guitarist Cliff Stevens also holds a Masters degree from Concordia University in Montreal specialising in music & education.
