Stein Groven (født 1952), kjent under artistnavnet Casino Steel, er en norsk keyboardist og vokalist. Han har spilt i flere ulike band og sammensetninger innen rock, punk og country i Norge, Storbritannia og USA og har gitt ut flere soloalbum. Han ble innlemmet i Rockheim Hall of Fame september 2021.[3]

Liv og virke

Som 18 åring flyttet han til London hvor han i 1970-årene blant annet var medlem av punk-rockbandene Hollywood Brats og senere The Boys som fortsatt er aktivt. I Norge ble han først kjent for sitt samarbeid med Gary Holton som han ga ut fire album med på starten av 1980-årene. I 1983 startet han samarbeidet med Claudia Scott og Ottar «Big Hand» Johansen i countrytrioen Claudia / Big Hand / Casino. Trioen ga ut tre plater. De fikk Spellemannprisen 1985 i klassen roots & country for albumet Oh Yeah! og ble nominert til Spellemannprisen 1984 i klassen country & western for Fools Never Learn. Samarbeidet med Claudia Scott fortsatte utover 80-tallet, først som duo og deretter i bandet CCCP hvor også Carlene Carter og John Payne var medlemmer. I 1990 ga han ut sitt første soloalbum som fikk navnet Casino Steel. Året etter startet han plateselskapet Revolution Records. I 2007 startet han The Last Rock 'N' Roll Band sammen med blant andre Honest John Plain fra The Boys.

Han fikk veteranprisen under Gammleng-prisen 2019[4] og ble nominert til Rockheim Hall of Fame i 2018 og 2019 før han ble innlemmet i 2021.

Han ble i 2002 dømt til 120 dagers fengsel for grovt økonomisk utroskap i den såkalte GramArt-saken. Saken fikk stor oppmerksomhet i media, da en rekke kjente norske musikere var deltagende som vitner.[5][6][7][8]
