Wollongong singer Stevan signs deals in US and Australia

Life is currently a whirlwind for 18-year-old Ian Stevan Muhayimana, with his urban beats getting a lot of attention.

The R&B singer/songwriter goes simply by the name of Stevan. The University of Wollongong student has been signed to record labels in Australia and the United States, and is about to embark on his first national tour supporting Winston Surfshirt.

Opportunities have arisen to spend time recording in a commercial studio, but Stevan said he feels more comfortable at home - where all his songs have so far been constructed.

"I did it all in my place, just in my room," he said. "In studios it's like you're there to do something and there's a little bit more pressure because you're, like, paying a lot of money to be there."

Stevan's home studio is literally a corner in his bedroom with a desk, laptop and equipment to plug in various instruments.
