Singer, songwriter, and producer Robyn Florence has an innate ability to create intimate moments. Her sound is calming and seductive, layered with ethereal harmonies over a foundation of soulful influences. Born in Manchester and raised just outside of Amsterdam, Robyn realised her passion for music after seeing Whoopi Goldberg as a lounge singer in Sister Act, at the age of 8. Her music tells stories of adolescence, love, grief, freedom and creative exploration.

She is known for her voice that is equally calming as it is seductive, with a foundation of soulful influences including Nina Simone, Sade and Lianne La Havas. In 2022, Robyn wrote and produced her first independent release, “Dream of Mine,” inspired after a dream to explore the emotional playground between our conscious and unconscious. The release was named song of the week by BBC Radio and picked up by stations and shows like: BBC Radio 1 Future Soul, BBC Radio 2 The Jazz Show with Jamie Cullum, and BBC Radio 6 Introducing Mixtape.

Most recently, Robyn has written and produced her first EP as a solo artist, which explores experiences of embodying juxtaposing emotions like love and grief, and isolation and freedom is debuting in 2023. 

Her first single, “Poison” comes out in April, inspired by the overwhelming weight of isolation Robyn felt during the pandemic when she began to reflect on feelings of invisibility in the world and her relationships.

DAVIES (1997) is an Amsterdam-based guitarist, producer and artist who creates groovy, dreamy songs rooted in modern day identity and self-doubt. Growing up with Indonesian and Dutch roots, he’s always lived between worlds, and often questioned where he truly fits. That search shapes his sound: warm, honest and built on harmony, rhythm and emotion.

On stage, he shows his ease and expressiveness on the guitar, while in the studio he’s become a trusted collaborator, producing for artists like Baby Panna, Ginge, Noa Lauryn and Maddy Moreah.

His new EP Crush Culture, made with Robyn Florence, arrives at the end of January. The project explores desire and blurred boundaries, moving between softness, tension and fantasy. The release show takes place on 20 January at Cinetol in Amsterdam.

Looking ahead, DAVIES is entering a more personal chapter. In 2026, he will step forward as a singer with his new album, bringing his storytelling and vulnerability to the front.

“Uncovering today’s music, inspired by the past and aimed at the future” is the ethos of Steppin’ Into Tomorrow. Immerse yourself in timeless and eclectic music with a soulful flavor that connects the sounds of yesterday with dope contemporary productions from Dutch soil and beyond.
