The Profile

Steve Winwood (born May 12, 1948, Great Barr, West Midlands, England) is an English singer, songwriter and multi‑instrumentalist. A former member of the Spencer Davis Group, Traffic and Blind Faith, he achieved major solo success with Arc of a Diver, Back in the High Life and Roll With It.

Founding member of Traffic and member of Blind Faith; early fame with the Spencer Davis Group. His hit “Higher Love” won Grammy Awards, and “Roll With It” reached No. 1 in the U.S. Billboards. Renowned for Hammond organ work and soulful vocals.

Four reviews trace Winwood from the modest 1977 debut to the self-made triumph of Arc of a Diver, the chart-topping punch of Roll With It, and the mature, Latin-tinged blend of About Time. Refugees of the Heart rounds it out with strong R&B hues and a radiant finale. Expect Hammond warmth, soulful vocals, and craftsmanship over flash.
