STONE & JEZREEL

Stone & Jezreel (S&J) is a 2-piece Rhythm & Soul band that originated in 2006 in Dublin, Ireland. The duo are siblings from a Nigerian royal family and are dedicated to using music as a tool to uplift people through the poetic words in their songs. S&J's writing and musical influences include Nas, Lauren Hill, Fela Kuti, Emeli Sande, Jesus and Bob Marley.

S&J's main goal is to spread their poetic words through their music to everyone, anywhere in the world who will listen to their music. Stone is a rapper and songwriter and started rapping in 2002 after he moved to Dublin. Using rap as a form of self-expression Stone and his friends formed a rap crew called 'The Geneseas Clan'. Jezreel is the lead singer and songwriter for the band. She started singing at the age of ten and has since gathered a diverse knowledge of musical styles including gospel, rock, soul and R&B.

S&J became a group after Stone's rap crew split-up and Jezreel had moved to Ireland. After helping Stone with a hook on a song they realised they had a sound too good to be ignored, and the combination of Jezreel's soulful melodic voice and Stone's poetic rap style led to the duo teaming-up to create their own style & sound.

S&J have performed at many prestigious festivals and venues including Dublin's RDS stadium, Olympia, The Ambassador and Tivoli Theatres and have shared the stage with great acts including Rihanna, Akon, Michael Bublé, N’Dubz, Sinead O’Connor, 2Face and PSquare. S&J were Ambassadors for Dance4Life Ireland and performed at the international event which was broadcasted in Europe, USA and across Africa.

AWARDS: S&J were awarded ‘The Leadership Excellence Award’ by Powerlist Magazine in 2012, ‘Best Artiste Group 2011’ by the Ireland African Music Awards (IAMA), ‘Best Artiste Group 2010’ by Diamond Promotions and have been nominated for the ‘Exclusive Magazine Best African Artist Award’ and Ben TV’s Best African Music Video in the category of Europe Based African Artists and ‘Meteor Most Promising Act 2010’.

S&J have spent the past year amassing a number of high quality rhythm and soul songs, fine-tuning their unique sound fusing African rhythms and language.
