Steve DiGiorgio (born November 7, 1967, Waukegan, Illinois) is an American bassist and musician.
DiGiorgio has played bass guitar in heavy metal bands such as Death, Autopsy, Control Denied, Testament, Vintersorg, Iced Earth, Sebastian Bach and is a founding member of Sadus. He is widely renowned for his technical skills, and he is one of the very few bass players in the metal scene who plays a fretless bass. He is also a founding member of the jazz-band Dark Hall and was also the bass player for the Futures End band. Along with his bass duties in Sadus he also plays keyboards.
Within his genre, Steve DiGiorgio is respected for his playing skills. He is noted for his ability to execute very fast 32nd notes with his plucking fingers, as opposed to using a pick.
Steve is currently working on a new album Memoirs of a Broken Man with his new band Futures End which will be released in late Summer 2009 with Fred Marshall and Marc Pattison. He is also working with Richard Christy's new project Charred Walls of the Damned, a band with Tim Owens and Jason Suecof as well.
