Music bio

Self-taught. By ear. On stages worldwide.

Steve Acho is a Detroit-based singer-songwriter-pianist. He honed his stage skills performing standup comedy starting at the age of eight, and continued through high school. A self-taught singer and piano player, Steve learned to play songs he loved and eventually wrote songs by ear.

He has entertained audiences as large as 20,000 people from New York to California and worldwide from Italy to Australia and Japan, including a popular Japanese TV show. His music has surpassed 50 million downloads and streams.

Steve has been featured performing the national anthem several times before Detroit Tigers, Lions and Red Wings games. He has shared the stage with Eddie Money, Mitch Ryder, 2014 Top 2 American Idol finalist Jena Irene and many others.

His performances at corporate events across the U.S. include original songs tailored for each event, company or person, including former Ford Motor Company CEO Alan Mulally and Detroit greats Dan Gilbert and Josh Linkner.

He has helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for charities, including FAR, an organization that provides music, art and dance therapy for those with special needs. Among many other charitable ventures, he donates all proceeds from his Christmas album each year to feed the needy in the Detroit area.
