And as the frontman and songwriter of British folk heavyweights Show of Hands, Steve’s impressive back catalogue of songs have become modern classics. He’s regularly cited by emerging artists as a source of inspiration. But who has ignited and fuelled Knightley’s creative spark throughout his decades of craftsmanship?
