DJ Stevo got his start in radio at the late, great WKDI student station at Northern Illinois University.
About DJ Stevo
From there, his life has been a blur until he found CHIRP Radio and once again, is happily "spinning" tunes on the air. A longtime Chicago resident and lifelong Illinoisan, Stevo can be seen at numerous shows around the city and occasionally playing DJ sets at local bars like Simon's, Delilah's and GMan Tavern. In 2008 he moved from in front of the stage to on it with his original band I Lost Control and the Joy Division tribute band The Unknown Pleasures. You can see them perform around Chicago.
