    Meet The 10th Member of Straight No Chaser

    Since Ryan Ahlwardt's departure in December, there has been a lot of speculation as to who would be the 10th member of Straight No Chaser... after more than a month, we're happy to reveal the identity of our newest member. Watch the video to meet him!



    Steve was a member of the group when we originally signed to Atlantic Records back in 2008, and was featured on our first album, Holiday Spirits. We're excited to have him rejoin the group!

    Make sure you head over to our Facebook page to say Hello, and to follow Steve on Twitter @SNCsteve!

    Your first chance to meet Steve and see him perform again as a part of the group will be during our run of shows this February, May and June.  Head over to our Tour page to get your tickets today!

    Much Love,
    Straight No Chaser

YAY! This makes me so happy. I was hoping against hope that this would happen, I just didn't think it would. Welcome back Steve!

"Sweet Little Jesus Boy!" And by this, I mean (1) an exclamation of great happiness that Steve has re-joined SNC, and (2) a submitted song request for your holiday concerts in 2013. Welcome back Steve!

I am just SO THRILLED. I didn't get to see SNC the first year, so I missed meeting both Steve and Mike I. In as much as I miss Ryan, I am just stoked about Steve coming back. "Superior Tenor" indeed, I've missed you!!

Well, you will be new to me, as I just "discovered" SNC about 6 months ago, and I am hoping still to see the group in concert if you guys come this way..so I can't wait for the "new" look SNC!

WOW!!! At the sad news of Ryan's departure (wishing him the best), my first thought was, "wouldn't that be cool if Steve Morgan came back?" And now here he is. This was WAY COOL!! Thanks for coming back Steve and thank you to your beautiful family, too. Now you know . . . you MUST come back to Montana. As soon as you tour gets you close to us, I'll be in touch to bring you back here. Love you all!

YAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If we had to say goodbye to Ryan, I can't think of a better person to say hello to in his place. Steve, I am so excited that I will get to see you perform and meet you in person! Now, SNC, bring on the spring tour schedule- I'm hoping I don't have to wait until June to see you again! (Whoa- that's a lot of exclamation points in one comment.)

Steve, welcome back to SNC and Chaser Nation! Your kiddos are wonderful! I can't wait to meet you on the road this year. We are all excited about this! The song I remember your voice best on (in recent memory) is when you guys sang Ave Maria at Dan Ponce's wedding. It was just beautiful. I am hoping SNC will do that arrangement someday on an album. I know it's not pop music, but SNC did it so well.

Hi Steve- I'm looking forward to hearing you and seeing you. Ryan's shoes are big to fill but I'm sure you're up to the challenge. Break a leg! Love your babies :-)
