In 1976, Steve Dior and Barry Jones built the basis of The Idols after previously rehearsing with Chrissie Hynde and Keith Levene and others in a band called The Quickspurts. The Idols evolved into what become The London Cowboys in the early 80s, where Steve was joined together with the Sex Pistol Glen Matlock and singer Russell King.

In 1993, Steve formed a band called Filthy Lucre, with his friend Phil Lewis who was previously in the American glam metal band L.A. Guns. According to Phil "We recorded a cool record called Popsmear, drank a lot of tequila, and drove around America in a van playing clubs and having a blast".
