Steve Hahn excels on four instruments -- The Chapman Stick®, trumpet, guitar, and bass guitar. Further, he is proficient in jazz, rock, prog, fusion, and classical styles. He has performed as a soloist and in ensembles throughout the United States, Europe, and eastern Canada, including in such venues as Carnegie Hall in New York City, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and the White House in Washington, DC, and Royal Albert Hall in London.

In 1994 Steve was one of just twelve musicians in the United States to receive a Jazz Fellowship-Individual Project Grant from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), which provided the opportunity for intensive private study on The Stick with world-renowned Stick/bass player Alphonso Johnson. This award was the first NEA grant given to a Chapman Stick player. Steve has also received grants from Tier III of the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District of Denver, Colorado, and the Arts and Humanities Assembly of Boulder, Colorado.
