Melbourne-based 7‑piece soul‑funk outfit Steppers bring their deep groove to Bright for the launch of their debut album – a body of work that speaks in rhythm, movement and unspoken musical language.
Launching April 18, 2026, the 6‑track release captures Steppers’ distinctive blend of soul, funk and RnB, led by the beats and vocals of the esteemed Reginald AK. Drawing on a wealth of experience from across the Australian music scene (The Bamboos, Melbourne Ska Orchestra, Ausecuma Beats, Bumpy, Kylie Auldist), the band weaves Rhodes, Telecaster, bass‑driven hooks and horn‑laden cadences into something truly their own.
Born of inner‑north Melbourne streets and dance floors, Steppers create an experience greater than the sum of its parts.
The groove is deep.
Comparison is unfair.
