by Ace Acker As half of Pittsburgh's favorite blues and soul duo, Soulful Femme, Stevee Wellons, along with musical partner, Cheryl Rinovato, are making musical waves around the country. As one-third of the Sun King's Rising Singers--along with Joy Brown and Bernice Wilkerson--Stevee's sublimely soulful voice is helping to propel SKR's new album, Signs & Wonders, to international acclaim.
I met Stevee on a remote Zoom production session in October 2020, at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. She and Joy added their voices to the Delta Tales single, Free Will in China Blue at David Granati's Maplewood Studio. When John Blangero and I began putting Signs & Wonders together in January 2021, Stevee and Joy were very much on our minds. Their voices, with Bernice, add immeasurable depth and color to almost every cut on the second album.
Congratulations to Stevee and Cheryl for this beautiful Christmas message and video!
