Santa Monica, CA-based duo Stepsonday grew up in Central California as the sons of a preacher -- not unlike other preachers' kids before them: Vincent Van Gogh, Alice Cooper, Denzel Washington, Mavin Gaye and Nat King Cole. The brothers Turner are masterful students of pop music seeing their influences casually shine in their art. The boys heads were flooded from an early age with records from The Beatles, The Who, Nirvana and The Clash as they quickly learned the importance of writing songs that are emotional, literate and sonically developed.
