who we are ...

We are concert organizers with a passion to raise money for medical research. Our talented staff handles all aspects of the process from identifying the right headliner, booking the venue, promoting the event, and selling the tickets. We include your medical research organization in our planning sessions, catering the event to your needs and expectations. A portion of the proceeds from the event are then donated directly to your organization.

Steve & Steve are two 70-something singer-songwriters who have been “keepin’ 60s music alive” since before 60s music was considered “oldies”.

 

Both from northern New Jersey, Steve Messinger ("Mess") and Steve Bernstein ("Bernie") met as students at Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, PA in 1969. It all started one afternoon when Bernie, a freshman, brought his guitar into the lobby of the coed dorm hoping to meet women, when, lo and behold, Mess, a sophomore, walked by, sat down with Bernie and instantly the two started to harmonize on tunes by The Beatles, The Everly Brothers and others. Thus, a legendary act was born.

 

Following their time together at F&M and a 10-year post-college hiatus, Steve & Steve reunited in 1983 to perform at Bernie's 10th year F&M Reunion, which rekindled their passion for performing together.

 

Steve & Steve have been privileged to share concert stages with some of their favorite 60s artists: Chad & Jeremy, The Grass Roots, Jay & The Americans, Herman’s Hermits (with Peter Noone), Gary Puckett & The Union Gap, Felix Cavaliere (The Rascals), Micky Dolenz (The Monkeys), The Happenings, Kate Taylor (whose first  60s-era album was produced by her brother, James), Don Dannemann (The Cyrkle), The Fifth Dimension, plus the 70s artist, Badfinger.

 

Despite having performed songs from their ever-expanding 750-song playlist for the past 55 years, Steve & Steve continue to be energized by those harmony-driven 60s songs. A typical Steve & Steve performance will treat the crowd to tunes by Simon & Garfunkel, Neil Diamond, Peter & Gordon, Cat Stevens, The Rolling Stones, James Taylor, Crosby Stills & Nash and, of course, The Beatles and The Everly Brothers. At every show, Steve & Steve delight in performing songs that formed the soundtrack to their lives, and in seeing just how much those same songs, 50+ years later, still resonate with their audiences.
