As long as Stephen can remember, he has always loved music. At the young age of five he had big dreams of being the fifth Beatle. That whole British band thing never panned out, but, he has found something just as cool, if not cooler. He has realized his dream of playing before crowds of screaming fans - the very young variety. The bonus is that through his play (it’s not really work if you love it), he is able to touch their lives by aiding in their education.

Stephen is an award-winning musician/writer whose albums have received thirteen nationally recognized honors. Suitable for the classroom, car or living room, his upbeat brand of children’s music spans the spectrum from Rock to Reggae, Pop, Blues & Dixieland with a little Broadway thrown in for fun.

His newest release, All Aboard for Learning is a collection of upbeat curriculum based songs targeted for Pre-K through 2nd Grade classrooms! These Stephen Fite recordings, Gobs Of Fun, "Rock The Day Away", "We're Just Like Crayons", "Wiggles, Jiggles & Giggles" & "Havin' Fun & Feelin' Groovy" are recipients of multiple children's music awards.

In addition to his award winning albums, Stephen has written the following titles: "Cool To Be In School", "Monkey Business," "Watch Me Move," as well as, these titles with children’s artist Mr. Al, "Just One World," "Back To School" and "Back To School Again."

Since the mid 90s, Stephen has performed concerts for over 350,000 children, as well as, keynotes and workshops for educators in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Virginia. He is available for concerts, keynotes or workshops and may be contacted at 800/234-9228.

Stephen's shows have been described as an "interactive celebration of music and learning." Geared for ages 3 to 7 years, Stephen combines a solid hour of music and movement with generous helpings of rhythm, repetition and rhyme to create a festive buffet of entertainment and fun. For children, the concert experience is exciting and motivating as they become active participants from the opening song. For teachers and parents, it is both relaxing and inspirational as they sit back (if they can stay in their seat) and enjoy the children's individual performances.

Stephen's presentations are music-filled and motivational, but most of all, informative and full of ideas educators can use immediately in their classroom. Using his homemade Big Books, Children's Literature and Props, Stephen will bring to teachers a renewed enthusiasm for using music to span their curriculum.
