Springer, a first-alto, boasts a versatile and sultry style known to transport audiences from church pews to Delta juke joints to downtown jazz cafes.

BRANDON STEVENS
Brandon Stevens is the rare vocalist with the ability to glide from classic Soul, to Funk, to modern R&B and Pop, with ease and conviction. Since the mid-2000s, his smooth, silky voice has carved its own space in the hearts of audiences from the U.S. to Europe.
Growing up in Columbia, South Carolina, Brandon became enamored with writing songs and playing piano by the time he was a teenager. While earning a degree in graphic design from Winthrop University, he realized that music was his true passion, and quickly became a campus favorite at talent shows and open mics. Following college, Brandon formed the R&B/Hip-Hop band Mellogroove with two of his undergrad classmates. In 2019, the band was honored by the City of Rock Hill, South Carolina as a Historic Musical Group.
During a ten-year stint with renowned Soul/Beach music group Chairmen of the Board, Brandon lit up the Southeastern U.S. festival and theatre circuit, and completed two critically-acclaimed UK tours. The Chairmen’s 2017 album ‘Words Left Unsaid’ features Brandon on lead vocals for ‘All I Need Is You Tonight’ and ‘Each Morning I Wake Up,’ a remake of Major Harris’ 1975 hit.
