Steeple Chaser's music is a perfect blend of hard rock energy combined with pop's solid melodies and broad transparent emotion. With evocative vocals, a pounding rhythm section and instantly memorable grooves, the band's sure melodies and crackling guitars echo songs of passion and introspective style.

Formed in 1999, Steeple Chaser entered the Winnipeg club scene with a desire to both perform and wow audiences with their unique sound and dazzling live shows. The group quickly moved up the club-circuit ladder and ultimately won Power 97 FM's "Next Big Thing" competition. Their prize was to record at renowned Winnipeg recording facility, Studio 11.

The result was a successful four song EP entitled "Pilot" recorded with Grammy nominee and multiple Juno Award winning producer Brandon Friesen. With a new perspective and EP to pass on to the public, Steeple Chaser spent the next year performing, cross-Canada touring and perfecting a live show that speaks volumes beyond their independent contemporaries, constantly staying in the public eye and slowly but surely becoming a favorite among both fans and critics.

During the summer of 2003, Steeple Chaser was honored again by Power 97 FM. Including them on there very first "Class of 2003" CD featuring 5 of Manitoba's most promising acts. After maintaining 8 weeks atop the Power Play Off in March and April, their single "Radio Who" was added to the play list in mid June. It carried on with mid-high rotation throughout the summer and is still being played today.
