Steve Brock

A calico is a cat that is mostly white with spots of browns and sometimes blacks. Sometimes a soul can feel the same way. My Calico Soul is a journey of taking all the labels we get thrust upon us or even give to ourselves and fully embracing them. Especially bisexuality.

I am a singer/songwriter and an actor. What sent me towards this journey are three women. Whoopie Goldberg, Bri Gigér and Jennie Fahn. These three women have commanded the stage like nobody I have ever seen. Years later, after the career of acting chose me, I started to feel as though I could command a stage as well.

Also for too long, men are told that they can never be assaulted, so they climb back into silence. I hope to be an inspiration to men who have experienced various levels of assault in their lives. My goal as an artist is to change the world. Even if it’s just one person. That person can spread the message.
