Early life and education
Steve Wall was born in Kingsbury Hospital, Honeypot Lane, the first of five children of Patricia (née Keogh) of the Liberties, Dublin, and Vincent Wall of Ennistymon, County Clare. Four of the children were born in London and while still young, the family moved back to Ireland, living first with the Keogh family in Harolds Cross. He has two brothers, Joseph and Vincent (born in County Clare), and two sisters, Anna and Helen. His mother's family home was full of records and sing-songs were regular, with uncles and aunts singing everything from Cole Porter to The Beatles and Ella Fitzgerald. This is where Wall says he discovered his love of music.
