the Harvey Steel show is a psychedelic gospel rock band crash landed on Earth from the planet Jupiter, and hence swimming in all different forms and shapes of exspression - from concert format, contemporary art, theatre and performance art, everyday flamboyance and different musical traditions.

Biography:
Harvey Steel, Blue Cosmic Storm, Boatswain Seabass, Sneaky Snare Bear, Yellow Spectral Star and Trixie Marmalade (and Cream Puff Warrior, but more on him later) hails from the planet Jupiter, now a gas cloud more than a planet. Actually Blue Cosmic Storm was born on Uranus, but the climate made him move to Jupiter. but more on that some other time. As Harvey Steel & the Harvey Steel tribute band left Jupiter's atmosphere as usual to play a concert at venus(the planet) , the band experienced a kind of time-lapse video of their home planet being destroyed by war, natural disasters and a blood thirsty god-like figure. They were thrown out of the cosmic balance and entered a parallel universe (our universe) and grew into a life as humanoid beings on our planet (Tellus) where they eventually had translated their Jupiterian music to earthly instruments and influences from earths musical history, They then met Cream Puff Warrior who had seen a TV commercial with the band and as he also was one of the Jupiterian survivors, he decided to contact them and eventually joined the band.
Sneaky Snare Bear turned human and Liquid Thyme Keeper suddenly appeared behind the drum kit! Boatswain Sea Bass is in the process of becoming human and in his place stands Cosmic Scorpio.
One day when the Harvey Steel show was performing, Astroid Train Chaser, an audience member with his saxophone in hand got invited to join the band on stage and have been a part of the group ever since.
They still create what they consider pop music. Although it brings forth crucified psychedelic rabbits looking for polkadots, a female backing vocalist that may seem to be made out of cardboard and other bizzare events, just listen to the music and find out that pop melodies are plentyfold.
