Recent collaborators Helado Negro (Roberto Lange), This Is the Kit (Kate Stables), and Becca Stevens add to Sō Percussion's string of successful vocal partnerships which have included Dawn Upshaw, Shara Nova, Shodekeh Talifero, and their GRAMMY Award-winning album with Caroline Shaw. Helado Negro and Kate joined Sō Percussion in 2025 to create an evening-length program of all new songs for Sō's two-week sold-out residency at The Brooklyn Academy of Music. Both songwriters organically co-created music with Sō that is filled with infectious jams and touching songs. Helado Negro’s latin-influenced electronic sounds and Kate Stables’ sophisticated English/Irish alt-folk charm fuse seamlessly with Sō Percussion’s percussive post-minimalism. Becca Stevens adds her signature 2x GRAMMY-nominated blend of folk, jazz, indie, and classical to this lineup.

The band has been nominated for a few Independent Blues Music Awards and their original recordings have broad international airplay. In 2024 the band had a song they released selected for use in a U.S. Presidential campaign ad.
Purpose, the gripping and hilarious new drama from two-time Tony Award-winning playwright Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, is “a thumping, riveting, guns-blazing, major new American play” (NY Daily News) that is “unstoppably fierce, funny, and ruthless!” (The New York Post).
