Steve Averill (born 1950) is an Irish graphic artist, art director, writer, musician, and former punk rock vocalist.
[1] Averill had a short career as the singer Steve Rapid in Ireland's first punk band the Radiators from Space[2] who were not very highly thought of by the musical establishment.
His last gig (during this period of the Radiators) was at Ireland's first outdoor rock concert in Dalymount Park on August 21[3] with Thin Lizzy.
He considered himself "a tone-deaf singer with no musical talent",[1] so he returned to his graphic designer job at a Dublin advertising company Arrow Publishing and after their demise worked at The Creative Department.
[5] In September 2016, Averill referenced the artist Russell Mills as a source of current inspiration for the web project Just Six Degrees.
