The Stepkids formed in 2009 after playing in bands and as sidemen for other musicians for years. Guitarist/vocalist Jeff Gitelman, bassist/keyboardist/vocalist Dan Edinberg and drummer/vocalist Tim Walsh—came together to “really get back to the nucleus of why we play music to begin with, to go back to the art,” notes Gitelman. The resulting music is a gleeful blend of classic jazz, R&B, funk, 70s pop rock and countless other genres and styles to create a uniquely personal brand of modern psychedelic soul.
The Bridgeport, Connecticut-based trio’s one-of-a-kind sound is the result of the creative and instrumental alchemy that occurs whenever they get together, opting to record on a reel-to-reel versus recording songs using loops and samples like many of their contemporaries. “It’s amazing what a human being can do when reacting to another human being,” Gitelman explains. “When you play a song all the way through together, you never play it the same way twice, and that’s the stuff that really excites us. We’re able to come up with humanistic approaches that no machine will ever be able to do.”

Via Audio was formed in 2003 at the infamous Berklee College of Music in Boston. After releasing a self-titled EP on the small independent Kill Normal Records in 2004, the band first garnered attention when Death Cab for Cutie’s guitarist Chris Walla dubbed them his “new favorite band,” in his column for Under the Radar Magazine.
