STEEM

There are two bands called Steem: 1) Steem - a pop/rock band from the Netherlands 2) Steem - a Swiss progressive rock band - - - - - - - - - 1) Steem - a pop/rock band from the Netherlands The story of Steem started somewhere around June 2004. Klaus had decided to write some songs to suit Angelique's voice and feelings as carefully and as closely as possible. After more than a year of writing and recording in his home studio, Klaus had finished more than ten songs and felt pretty confident about the material. About that time he got in contact with his cousin Theo who came by to give some tips and tricks on recording guitar and bass tracks. When he heard the demos of the tracks Klaus had recorded he was pretty amazed. Theo volunteered to add some real bass guitar parts to the recordings, so replacing the synth bass tracks that Klaus had recorded. In this way Theo had some real-life material to practice with while recording at home and maybe if Klaus liked it he could keep the bass parts and improve the quality of the demos this way. One thing led to another and within two months more than half of the demo tracks had freshly recorded bass tracks. Klaus became enthusiastic and wanted to form a real band now. He called Theo and asked him how he felt about the idea. Theo liked the idea very much and told him he was in. Now they had to look for a drummer. A couple of weeks later they got in touch with John. He liked the idea of playing new material and adding his own interpretation to the drum parts that Klaus had come up with.
