Steve Upton
Steven 'Steve' Upton (born 24 May 1946 in Wrexham, Wales, although he grew up in Exeter, Devon, England) is the former drummer for the British rock band Wishbone Ash. He was with the band for two decades (1969–1990). His tight, precise drumming would be a key element of the band's sound, and Upton was one of the first drummers to sport the open-handed drumming.
Around 1972 Steve lived in Notting Hill Gate with his then girlfriend Heather Boyce, but their relationship was destined to come to an end as Steve had a determination to never get married. Ted Turner also shared the flat with Steve and Heather at this time. . Steve later married, settling in Woking, Surrey with his wife and three children.
