Introducing a soothing duo known as The Steoples Friends for over fifteen years, Yeofi and GB combine their varying musical worlds as The Steoples. Originally from rural England, Yeofi was surrounded by his father’s diverse collection of classical to soul music from a young age. With David Bowie as his first “real musical love”, he quickly developed a passion for punk rock and played with several UK-based bands before moving to Los Angeles. As A Race of Angels, Yeofi has collaborated with artists including Theo Parrish and DJ Spinna. Gifted & Blessed and Frankie Reyes are just some of the aliases GB has used to release his music. Over the last four years, he has been a Stones Throw regular, releasing two albums as Frankie Reyes on the label: Boleros Valses y Mas in 2016 and Originalitos in 2020. The Steoples’ debut album Six Rocks came out on Stones Throw in 2017 after Peanut Butter Wolf expressed interest in hearing more of GB’s work. The Steoples’ second album, Wide Through The Eyes Of No One, draws on a range of sounds: Latin rhythms, ‘80s soul, sombre folk, and R&B, with Yeofi’s confessional lyrics contemplating themes of isolation and the “knee jerk resilience of the human spirit”. Following the release of their newest single "In the Dance" they project one nostalgic sounding track that will truly grasp your ears. Beginning with soft instrumentation leading onto their sweet and soft vocals they complete the track fully. Explaining the track further it's about a celebration of the luminaries that have danced across human history. Director Panther Modern adds: “The video is an exploration in isolation and additionally, the power and importance of physical communication. It follows two partners in isolation, longing for the chance to see each other but powerless to the technology that gates access to that communion. Only for a predetermined amount of time are the partners allowed to interact with each other in virtual environments. A headset slowly drops into their isolated rooms allowing access to the virtual worlds. A place where they can experience the idea of physical interaction and self-expression through a government-controlled programme called, 'In The Dance'.” To the vocals and production, this track will surely have you dancing. Being just perfect for a late night drive or out on a date. Go stream "In The Dance" and check out their discography which is filled with outstanding tracks.
