Although a lot of people remember Steve McConnell from his days as the drummer in The Snowmen, his music career has included stints with plenty of well-known Erie acts, including Ruby Port, ATV, Mr. Gone, and the Rhythm Method. He also played drums for Donnie Iris for a few years and was involved in the early days of Dirty Looks with Henrik Ostergaard. Steve talks about pursuing his musical passion and then later in life switching gears and entering the healthcare field.
