GUITAR, SAMPLER/SYNTH, PRODUCTION

Following his time in the darkwave electro-industrial band Scar Tissue, Phil expanded his work across psychedelic rock, electronica, ambient, Americana, shoegaze, post-rock, and art rock. His solo projects, Bionic Siren and Written on Missiles, further explore his dynamic range as a musician and producer. During Scar Tissue’s active period in the 1990s, Phil was recognized for his innovative approach to guitar and sound design, integrating electronic toys and noise makers to shape the band’s sound. He later produced the tracks "Month of Sundays" and "Heart of Stone" for San Francisco rock band Gen11 on Code 213 Records.

He later joined New Wave “parody” band Space Vacuum (From Outer Space), recording 2 albums and enjoying a “mini-tour” of Japan in 2005. Currently, Steve plays with psychedelic-surf band The Voltones and continues recording music for Scar Tissue, his own post-rock project Brane, and the dark-ambient project The Shallow Sea.
