We had the opportunity to sit down and be educated on music by none other than the great Steve Van Zandt, aka Little Steven, when he and his band The Disciples of Soul performed in Vancouver on Monday. Little Steven gave us some of the background on the Teachrock.org that he’s been supporting as well as the foundational music of the 60’s that has informed his playing and tastes for decades now. A wonderful man with countless stories, please have a viewing!
