Steve Nisbett

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Steve 'Grizzly' Nisbett (born March 15, 1948, in Nevis) was a drummer for the reggae group Steel Pulse from 1977 to 2001.

Before joining Steel Pulse, he was a member of various soul bands, such as Penny Black, Rebel, and Roy Gee and the Stax Explosion. He joined Pulse in 1977 before their debut album Handsworth Revolution through their 1997 release Rage and Fury. Seen as the old man of the group he was the main drummer until 1998 when he gave up the honors to Conrad Kelly, but continued to play percussion. He ultimately retired from the band in 2001 due to health concerns, but on good terms.

He currently lives in Perry Bar, Birmingham, England and owns his own record company, Grizzly Records.
