Steven Severin on Morricone Youth, Sunday February 21, 2010, 2-4 pm ET

Steven Severin first came to prominence as the bassist for Siouxsie and The Banshees, who emerged from the London punk scene in 1976 and went on to be one of the most iconic and influential British rock bands of all time.  Along with core members Siouxsie Sioux and Budgie, Severin co-wrote and co-recorded eleven albums whose impact on subsequent generations of musicians still reverberates today. Since The Banshees' dissolution in 1996, Severin has continued to make a name for himself as a composer of music for theatre and dance companies as well as film soundtracks including the infamously banned "Visions of Ecstasy."  Tune in this Sunday, February 21 at 2 p.m. EST for a special installment of Morricone Youth, as DJ Gray Dolores (Misty Roses vocalist Robert Conroy) chats with Steven Severin regarding his music, his favorite soundtracks and their influence on his work with Siouxsie and the Banshees and as a solo artist.
