Steve Harris

Stephen Percy "Steve" Harris (born 12 March 1956) is an English musician and songwriter, known as the bassist and leader of the British heavy metal band Iron Maiden, which he founded as a teenager in 1975. During the mid-1970s he was a youth team footballer for West Ham United. He often has the crest of West Ham on his bass. Harris is often considered among the best and most influential heavy metal bassists and most known for his trademark "galloping" basslines. Before playing, Harris often chalks his fingers, to make these fast patterns easier to play.




















Don't, uh, don't worry so much about the stripy tights.
