Steve Lacy
Steve Lacy
(full name Steve Thomas Lacy-Moya) is a songwriter, singer, producer, and musician from Compton, California, not to be mistaken with Steve Lacy, the saxophonist. Born May 23, 1998, the 23-year-old musical prodigy first stepped into the spotlight as a member of The Internet, a Los Angeles-based R&B outfit. The Internet has close ties to Odd Future, the group responsible for giving the world Tyler, the Creator, Earl Sweatshirt, and others.

Lacy’s music is a unique blend of alternative R&B, neo-soul, lo-fi, funk, indie rock, and other genres. He’s known for his DIY approach to production, with some of his earliest recordings being made on his phone. Still in his early 20s, the musician has gained a devoted following of loyal fans, many of whom have been listening since his time as a member of The Internet.

Born in Compton to an African-American mother and a Filipino father, Steve was solely raised by his mom. His father passed away when he was only ten years old, and Steve has shared in interviews that the two never had a significant relationship. Steve took an interest in guitar at an early age and started teaching himself to play after falling in love with the video game Guitar Hero. He serves as the primary guitarist on all of his recordings, but that’s far from the only instrument he’s mastered. Steve is also proficient in drums, keyboards, bass, and vocals. Lacy went to private school for the majority of his early years, as did his sisters. The Lacy kids were as sheltered as possible by their mom, who wanted to keep them away from the ugly side of Compton.
