Steve Blaze is a founding member and original guitarist for New Orleans-based band, Steve Blaze. Lillian Axe formed in 1983, and in 2010 they became the first hard rock act to be inducted into the Louisiana Music Hall Of Fame. In 2021, Steve was inducted into that Hall Of Fame individually for his contributions as a guitarist and a songwriter.

Steve tells us about the new record in great detail and what the future looks like with the Global Rock record label, and he also discusses some of the history of the band when he tells a story about Ratt‘s Robbin Crosby, who produced the first Lillian Axe record.
You can’t ask for a nicer, more gracious guy than Steve Blaze. Sit down and enjoy Steve’s warm personality as he takes us through Lillian Axe music – then and now.

Hello everyone! My name is Scott Itter, but some know me as Dr. Music. I am a music journalist and photographer out of the Chicagoland area, and I have been in practice for over 20 years. I grew up in the 70’s with two big brothers that showed me all kinds of rock and roll. As I grew older I ventured out into different genres like jazz, funk, folk, and whatever else I could wrap my ears around. As I read every liner note and every Circus and Hit Parader like they were the Old and New Testament, I came to realize that I just love sound and appreciate all the people that create it.
I later became a stay-at-home dad and started honing my writing and photography skills to keep my mind from turning into mashed peas. My kids are now adults, my mind is only slightly mushy, and I am thrilled to have the honor of presenting my work to you!
