“Steve Brosky: Living in Allentown” will be a film about the many chapters of Steve Brosky’s life on and off the stage.

Singer-songwriter Brosky is closely associated with Allentown, the city where he grew up. Many of his songs are about memories of his old neighborhood.

You can still see and hear Brosky play all over the Lehigh Valley, either solo or more often as a duo with musicians including Jimmy Meyer, John Cannavo and Ken Siftar.

Steve Brosky and his Big Lil’ Band perform at 3 p.m. July 7, Rising River Brewery, 1955 Willow Lane, Macungie.

“Steve Brosky: Living in Allentown,” a film written by Brosky and producer Michael B. Judkins, is in the development stage. Speaking at a coffee shop in Whitehall and via phone from Allentown, Brosky and Judkins say that they have been collaborating since April 2023.

“I had previously worked with Steve on a music video of his song, ‘In Your Arms,’” says Judkins. “The song and video tell a dramatic story about drug addiction.

“He approached me about writing a screenplay about the story of his life. We had meetings and writing sessions for almost a year,” Judkins says.

The synopsis describes the film thusly: “A young Brosky navigates his childhood living in Allentown, discovering his life that will take him on a musical journey through blues, folk, Americana and world music, writing lyrics that reflect his upbringing.”

Judkins plans to involve the arts community of the Lehigh Valley, and hopes to film in Allentown.

“It will take place in the 1960s and 1970s when Steve was a young man, so we have to find the proper locations. We are looking at a length of 119 minutes.”

Brosky and Judkins plan to release an album of Brosky’s music that will be the soundtrack to the film and will feature some new songs.

Brosky is constantly working on new music. His latest project is “Almost,” a six-song collection by producer Josh Klein. Klein previously recorded with Brosky on bass and guitar.

“It is available on all streaming platforms,” Brosky says. It is only available digitally now.

Brosky is looking to release “Styles Forever,” another four- to six-song collection in August. The title comes from advice Brosky gave to his daughter, telling her to ignore fleeting changes in fashion: “Fashion is temporary, but style is forever.”

Brosky has released seven albums. Many of them feature songs about Allentown and the Lehigh Valley, including “Hey Now (Do The Dutch),” “15th Street Bridge Blues,” “King of the Queen Victoria,” “The Cameo” and “Limestone and James.” The latter song, from the album of the same name, is about an intersection in his old neighborhood.

Brosky has opened for B.B. King, Bo Diddley, Robin Trower, Weird Al Yankovic and The Beach Boys.

Judkins has been a therapist in mental health and substance abuse for more than 20 years. He has won awards for his 2022 short dramatic film, “Lonely Girl.” His other film shorts are “A Familiar Face,” “Wallace” and “Mrs. Wakefield One Woman Experimental Monologue.”

Judkins is presenting “Arts and Care,” Aug 30 and 31, Charles A. Brown IceHouse, Bethlehem. Described as an event that will “Unlock the Healing Power of Creative Expression at Arts and Care,” it will feature jazz, guided painting, poetry, wellness presentations and the play “An Empty Chair.”
