Steve Suffet is a New York-based folk singer who describes himself as an "old-fashioned folksinger in the People's Music tradition."

Born in 1947, he has been performing for decades, drawing from a repertoire that includes topical-political folk, songs of America's industrial heritage, old-time, blues, ragtime, and gospel.

Suffet's interpretation of"Stagolee" stays true to the song's roots while incorporating his unique folk style.

As of 2025, Suffet continues to perform at venues such as the Peoples' Voice Café in New York City, reflecting his ongoing commitment to the folk music community.
