Steve Forrest (born September 25, 1986) is an American drummer from Modesto, California, best known for his work with the British alternative rock band Placebo, which he left in 2015.

Before joining Placebo, Forrest was drummer for the ambient rock band Evaline.

He announced his intention to leave Evaline in January 2007,[2] but remained with the band throughout their 2007 United States tour.

In early 2016, Forrest was forced to disband Planes, and relocate back to the United States due to difficulties surrounding his UK visa.

In a public blog, his then wife, Xarah Xavier stated: "Despite paying his 40% tax bracket for the whole of these 8 years the disgraceful nature of what the UK has now declared their IMMIGRATION LAW has forced us to re-locate to the fast paced, bright lights and creative urban community of LOS ANGELES.
