STO CULTR is not your average band. It’s an international act based in Stockholm, Sweden (with ”Sto” being short for Stockholm).

Members, Julimar Santos, Eric Turner and Carl Björsell met collaborating as songwriters for major artists and decided to join forces TO CREATE something really special - The fusion of Turner’s classical and indie vibe with Santos’ blue urban perspective weaved into stories and poetry accompanied by Björsell’s sublime artistry. Realizing quickly that they had found something very rare, they set to work immediately as a band, setting aside all of their other projects.

Coming UP: STO CULTR will be releasing their second single Runnin on the 13th of March. ”We wrote the song with our friends Kilian&Jo…in 2020 we’re gonna release a lot of music, that’s a promise, and Runnin’ is the perfect song to start it off!”

Highlights: STO CULTR signed their first record deal 2019 with Universal Music GmbH/Enter Records. They released their first single and played their first live show at the Lanxess Arena in Cologne in front of 15 000 people and live-streamed worldwide to millions of viewers.

About the members: Coming from Brazil, Julimar Santos was raised on rap music. He started out as an MC (J-Son) in Gothenburg, Sweden, touring and collaborating with many international and Swedish artists. His style flows effortlessly between smooth and classical singing to urban and rap, with a talent for writing real and meaningful lyrics his stories take on a documentary feel as you peer into his world.

Eric Turner is maybe best known for his #1 hit ”Written In The Stars” with Tinie Tempah. He grew up in Boston…His unique voice, cultured from living on both sides of the Atlantic, is finally realized fully in STO CULTR. He says: ”This is my ultimate band and these are my ultimate songs, the real ones I always wanted to make, the realest stuff”. His passionate artist view of music and melody crosses from indie to urban and classic pop creating an epic feel every time his voice appears.

Raised on music in the streets of Stockholm, but living in his own universe, Carl Björsell picked up the Guitar when he was 10 and started touring as a multi instrumentalist by of 16. Inspired by all kinds of music, Carl has the ability to combine the two distinct worlds of two poets into one NATURAL, unique and passionate vibe, that IS STO CULTR.
