Steven R Klenke

Austin-based Composer/Trumpeter, Steve Klenke's eclectic composition and trumpet chops are brightly lit and brimming with good vibrations; Klenke's own timeless jazz, pop, and orchestral/soundtrack compositions offer the best of past and present sounds with a consistent high standard of performance. Klenke's current musical compositions have been featured on Netflix, A&E, The History Channel, Amazon Prime, Peacock, Hulu, Discovery, UK-PRS, and United Entertainment & Media.

University trained, former award winning music educator, Steve has thousands of gigs and a CD release to his credit. Steve is both a songwriter and publisher member of BMI, Husband, Dad, Grandpa, and the founder and owner of eMotific Music. Klenke's goal is simple, to place more of his tracks in Film/TV/Sync, to create meaningful connections through music, and to continue to play gigs on the trumpet!

Fan quotes:
"Nice, smooth, effortless jazz that pulls you in and changes your mood."
"This song really is a bit of a flashback to a time of great music and great artists!"
