Stephen Yeske: My parents signed me up for piano lessons when I was ten. I think I became curious when I actually felt something when playing a music piece on the piano.

Steve: I believe the first time was for a piano recital in middle school.

Steve: To independently record and release music is a whole lot easier to do now and that certainly helped me in deciding to record an album. I've been writing songs since 2012. The music projects I'll be recording will be a collection of those songs. Half the songs on the "Keys of Heaven" EP album are older songs and the other half are fairly new.

Steve: Delirious?, Paul Oakley, Ryan Delmore, Jeremy Riddle, Gospel Hymns, etc.

Steve: Psalm 1:1-3 KJV: 1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. 3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

Steve: It's a commitment. To grow we need to be consistent, disciplined and fervent and be merciful towards ourselves in the process. This goes for learning to play an instrument and I also believe these principles can be applied in being an instrument for God to use.

Steve: I would play "Fountain of Life." I feel a strong connection to that song whenever I play it.

Steve: I can't foresee myself not writing songs for the time being. My next project will be a full LP album. I plan on recording and releasing that next year.

Steve: I feel like sharing this particular verse. Hebrews 12:1-3 KJV: "1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us. 2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds."
