Smoove & Turrell, hailing from the Northeast of England, have carved a niche for themselves in the soul and funk music scene since their formation in 2009. The spirited duo consists of the producer and beats-man Smoove and the powerhouse vocalist John Turrell, whose gritty and emotive voice has become a defining feature of their sound. Their collaboration is an energetic blend of soul, funk, and electronic music, offering a modern take on classic sounds.

The band has cemented their status in the UK's soul scene with a series of critically acclaimed albums and infectious singles. Their recent work includes "Stratos Bleu," a 2020 album that saw the band pushing into new territories with more synth-heavy, electronic dance-oriented grooves. The project was later followed up with a collection of remixes in "Stratos Bleu Remixed," "Stratos Bleu Dubs," and various remix reissues of standout tracks like "Do It," "It Ain't Working," and "Elgin Towers," showcasing the duo's ability to reinvent their music through the lens of other producers. The latest releases like "Violet Hour," "Echoes," and "Joy!" continue to demonstrate Smoove & Turrell's commitment to their evolving sound—replete with pulsating beats, vibrant brass sections, and uplifting melodies that are bound to get listeners moving.
