Artist Bio

Artist Bio:
The Five Stairsteps were an American family group from Chicago, consisting of five siblings: Alohe, Clarence Jr., James, Dennis, and Kenneth Burke. They were known for their harmonious soul music sound and were active in the 1960s and 1970s. The group's name was derived from the fact that the siblings' heights formed a stairstep pattern.


Their most successful single was "O-o-h Child" released in 1970, which reached #8 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song became a classic and has been featured in various movies, TV shows, and commercials over the years. The Five Stairsteps were considered pioneers in the soul and R&B music genres and paved the way for other family groups in the industry.
