Steve Darmody has one of the smoothest voices in Gospel Music. Since winning first place in the Estes Park Christian Artists' National Vocal Competitions, his bass-baritone voice has often been compared to "milk chocolate." He travels throughout the world, singing for many denominational groups and national gatherings. He has been heard on several Christian television networks and has a long list of guest appearances that include the Pentagon, Carnegie Hall, the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, Crystal Cathedral, and more.
Steve has sung for the Net Satellite meetings since 1995. He has helped Mark Finley in providing music for his crusades in the US as well as Romania and Australia. Other evangelists Steve has worked with include Kenneth Cox, Ron Halvorsen, C.E. Brooks, John Carter, Lonnie Melashenko, and Mike Tucker. He sings nearly every year at ASI, and at the last General Conference was invited to sing twice during the evening weekend meetings.
With some 3000 concerts and appearances on his resume, Steve has ministered in an unbelievable array of situations and venues - from military bases, hospitals, and shopping malls to some of the finest performing arts centers here and abroad, including Warsaw's National Philharmonic Theater. Multiple overseas tours have literally taken him around the world. But his heart has always been in the ministry and mission of the local church, especially in its outreach! His hope is that people will carry his songs into their daily lives, and be reminded that the claims of Christ, clearly found in His Word, will produce a life filled with contentment and peace.
His 40 years of music ministry have encompassed the musical styles of hymns, southern gospel, jazz and inspirational. Each of Steve's 8 CDs show a sampling of this varied style that reflects Steve's heart and passion to use music to reach out in all musical genres.
