Who is Steve Lieberman?

Steve Lieberman is a Jewish-American punk rock singer, musician, composer and producer residing in Freeport, New York. Considered an outsider musician, "walking the line between insanity and genious [sic]", partially attributed to his lifelong struggle with bipolar disorder, he has released 21 CDs and has shared the stage with Weezer, Andrew WK, Glassjaw, Ryan Dunn and the Misfits before retiring from performing in December 2011 to battle accelerated phase bone marrow cancer.

In 2009, Lieberman signed a multi-album deal with Jewish indie label JDub Records, taking the place of Matisyahu on their artist roster. As of the spring of 2011, Lieberman, a town comptroller by trade, was "the world’s only orthodox Jewish heavy metal musician with a record deal", according to Newsday.

Lieberman's 2010 song "No Festival of Lights" has received honorable mention placement in the Song of the Year Award as well as airplay on Rich Russo's Anything Anything with Rich Russo radio show on New York City WRXP 101.9 commercial rock radio.
