The Band Tells The Story �Behind The Album� In New Video
Fall Dates Includes NYC Record Release Show, Month-long European Tour
The Stepkids will release new album Troubadour next Tuesday,September 10 on Stones Throw Records. The �vintage yacht-funk jazz odyssey� can be streamed now as SPIN Magazine�s �Album of the Week.� The band also sat down for a �behind the album� video that can be viewed now on the Stones Throw YouTube Channel. After highly praised turns at Bonnaroo and the Stones Throw Soul Tour this year, the band�s upcoming shows include a record release event in New York City, a month-long European tour, and dates later this fall with Galactic.
Carefully crafting their own brand of modern music by blending R&B, funk, 70s pop/rock, classic jazz and more with soaring harmonies, the Connecticut trio have made a name for themselves as one of the most artistically diverse bands today. Praise for their 2011 self-titled debut album and for their multi-sensory live show featuring interactive light art projections, led to tours with an eclectic mix of artists including Kimbra, Mayer Hawthorne & The County, Mates of State, The Horrors and more. While touring non-stop over the last two and a half years, the band has been carefully crafting the collection of songs found on Troubadour, an album shadowing the artists' journey to success.
In addition to work on their own music, The Stepkids have been busy collaborating and playing with a number of other musicians. The band was featured on a track from The Jellyfish Mentality, the free album from Odd Future side project the Jet Age of Tomorrow ( Pitchfork ) and, most recently, guitarist Jeff Gitelman collaborated with another Odd Future side project the Interneton new track "Partners in Crime Part Two" ( SPIN ).
