Steve Wong Ka-Keung is a Hong Kong musician, composer and the songwriter. He was one of the members of the now disbanded, Hong Kong rock band Beyond. Steve Wong plays bass guitar and provides vocals. Steve Wong is also the younger brother of Beyond's late lead singer, Wong Ka-Kui.
After forming Beyond, Steve's older brother, Wong Ka-Kui, asked to practice the keyboard so he could join the band. However, Steve disliked keyboard and opted for bass guitar.
Wong formed a new band called Picasso Horses since the disband of Beyond in 2005.
At the 23rd Annual Hong Kong Film Awards, Beyond won the award for "Best Original Film Song" for "Vast Skies" (長空 or "Chang Kong"), written by Steve Wong and Yip Sai Wing.
