Stone Fruit is an independent London-based duo made up of Val and Lef, songwriters, producers, and long-time collaborators whose creative partnership is rooted in creating music that feels intimate, timeless, and contemporary, yet unmistakably their own.
Genre-fluid at its core, Stone Fruit’s sound fuses elements of soul, pop, R&B, jazz, and electronica. Warm vocals and lush arrangements support emotionally resonant storytelling, drawing on influences that span generations, from classic artists like Stevie Wonder and Fleetwood Mac to modern innovators such as John Mayer and Jacob Collier.
Since 2019, Stone Fruit has released three EPs, earning praise from fans and critics and have performed across London’s live scene, steadily growing their fanbase. Currently, the duo is writing and exploring new sonic directions as they work towards their next album, scheduled for release in October 2026.
