Around 2015, SoBe and David Chief became friends in Burlington, Vermont, where David was going to school and SoBe was blowing glass. As their friendship evolved, they began collaborating on music, which led to Verdant’s creation at the end of Summer 2021 during the midst of the pandemic. This is where they took advantage of the downtime to experiment and discover their sound.
Verdant marks their first release on Stereofox. It is inspired by the vibrant nature in the Vermont area; beautiful hills covered with lush thickets that encircle the crystal clear waters of Lake Champlain. A picture perfectly conveyed with this EP as it takes us to the remote and untroubled realm of these parts. Influences from Lofi Hip-Hop and Jazz shape up this project, that bridges the gap between chill and groovy, reminiscent of calm and peaceful times with no trace of worry or fear.
A music discovery website, label and creative collective.
We started Stereofox because of our love for music, eagerness to learn and the joy of helping others. These things are still in motion and we’re excited to continue our path with the label.
