Steve Haines and the Third Floor Orchestra

The inspiration for Steve Haines and the Third Floor Orchestra came after Haines had finished writing a string quartet arrangement for Becca Stevens. Writing for the album began in the summer of 2016, and the album’s recording process was completed in February 2018. Haines’ foray into orchestral writing also paired with his passion for writing lyrics, a recent discovery for the artist. “In my midlife, I discovered lyrics, and there a couple of songs on here of mine.” Haines exclaimed, “I am late to writing and even paying attention to lyrics but i’m very glad for them at this stage of my life.”
