Be
Steadwell is a songwriter and filmmaker from Washington DC.
Redefining the love song in a modern context, Be describes her music
as "queer pop and soul". In her live performances, she utilizes
vocal layering, elaborate harmonies, and beat boxing to compose her
songs on stage.
The Pinstriped Rebel spins an eclectic and fun mix
of music, maintaining the highest quality control across a
freeform blend of soul, funk, disco, and old school hip-hop,
even throwing in some 80s freestyle.
