St. Lucia is a talented musician and producer known for his unique blend of synth-pop and indie rock. Born Jean-Philip Grobler in Johannesburg, South Africa, he later moved to Brooklyn, New York where he honed his craft and developed his signature sound. With catchy hooks, infectious melodies, and heartfelt lyrics, St. Lucia has captivated audiences around the world. His music is often described as uplifting and nostalgic, with influences ranging from 80s pop to African rhythms. Whether performing live or producing in the studio, St. Lucia continues to push boundaries and create music that resonates with fans.
St. Lucia's journey in the music industry began when he formed a band called St. Lucia [band name] in 2010. The band quickly gained attention with their debut EP "Stairway To Heaven" [EP title], which showcased their distinctive sound and garnered critical acclaim.
Since then, St. Lucia has released several successful albums including "When The Night" [album title] and "Matter" [album title]. His singles such as "Elevate" [single title] and "Dancing On Glass" [single title] have received widespread radio play and have become fan favorites at live shows.

You could never accuse St. Lucia's wunderkind leader Jean-Philip Grobler of concealing his intentions. 'Matter', the band's follow-up to 2013's 'When The Night', is 11 thundering blasts of pop. They've taken the debut's cavernous sounds and exploded them: The melodies are sharper, the song structures more concise and Grobler's vocals more assured. In fact, we haven't heard a male pop vocalist sing his heart out this way since the '80s. First single, 'Dancing On Glass' is an earworm of hooks and choral vocals. Throughout 'Matter', the details actually do matter: A funky, Prince-like guitar and falsetto breakdown midway through 'Physical,' layers of shimmer glazed over 'Stay,' or the sweet final minute ("go find me somebody to love!") of the album's lone midtempo, 'Love Somebody.'
