HistoryKelly and Harmony first met while working on Chrisette Michele's 2009 album Epiphany.[1] They went on to collaborate as a duo writing and producing tracks for artists including Rihanna, Bruno Mars, Britney Spears, Mary J. Blige, Kelly Clarkson, Jessie J and Miley Cyrus.[1][2] Wanting to create music that would better reflect their own point of view and move them beyond being songwriters for hire, they formed Louis York.[1][3] The group name originates from the hometown of its founders, Claude Kelly (New York City) and Chuck Harmony (East St. Louis).[1] They write and produce all the tracks, with Kelly providing vocals and Harmony playing keyboards, guitars, drums and the vocoder.[1] Louis York is the first act on their imprint Weirdo Workshop, whose releases are distributed by Sony's RED Distribution.[1] Louis York debuted with the release of the single "Clair Huxtable" on February 24, 2015. The song celebrates strong women like its namesake, the mother on the television sitcom The Cosby Show.[4] In the music video, Kelly and Harmony are seen searching for a woman like Mrs. Huxtable: strong, smart, sexy and elegant.[2][5] They released their second single, "Good Drinks, Dumb Jokes", on August 13, 2015.[6] Masterpiece Theater – Act I, Louis York's debut EP, was recorded in Los Angeles in the summer of 2015, and released on September 18, 2015.[1] The Los Angeles Times described it as "an eclectic mix steeped in hook-driven pop and throwback R&B along with rock and African tribal rhythms."[1] Their follow-up EP, Masterpiece Theater – Act II, was released on November 18, 2016.[7]Members
