Let's make this birthday one to remember.

70 years old (Born on April 30, 1954)

Happy Birthday, Steve! Another year older and still strumming strong—clearly your mandolin skills age like fine Devon cider. From captivating audiences with Show of Hands to penning songs that make even the grumpiest folkie tap their feet, you've truly mastered the art of storytelling through music.

Whether it's performing at packed festivals or charming intimate venues across Britain, you continue to inspire us all. May this birthday bring as much joy as your timeless tunes have brought countless fans over the years—and may you never run out of strings (or witty banter) on stage!

Cheers to many more harmonious adventures ahead!
