He is also the younger brother of the late soul singer [Edwin Starr](/source/Edwin_Starr). ## Background Angelo Starr was born in [Cleveland](/source/Cleveland), [Ohio](/source/Ohio). His time as a youth was spent in Cleveland as well as [Detroit](/source/Detroit), [Michigan](/source/Michigan), where he would go to see his brother Edwin during the summer school breaks.[1] The reason Starr came to the UK was because of his brother.[2] One of the fields Starr had worked in is as an [audio engineer](/source/Audio_engineer) with the [UK hip hop](/source/UK_hip_hop) label [Kold Sweat Records](/source/Kold_Sweat_Records).[3] ### The Team The Team was Edwin Starr's touring band. It was formed in 1982 by percussionist Clive Hare and bass player Kevin Kendall. Angelo Starr's first involvement with the group came about during the 1990s when he took the place on a show filling in for their absent guitarist. He carried on doing work for them and served as their musical director.[4] Upon the death of his brother in 2003, he felt he had reached an impasse and did not know if he still wanted to be involved with music.[5] He eventually stepped in to front his brother's touring band[6] The Team which had been around for years. They played at various venues such as the Riverbank Bar & Kitchen, which was part of their concert tour with their end concert in [Great Yarmouth](/source/Great_Yarmouth) in November 2017.[7] ### Other music involvement Starr also contributes as a singer in The AllStars Collective.[8] ## Discography Singles Title Release info Year F Notes "Stand On My Own Two Feet" / "Non Stop Destination" Centre City Records CENC 001 2007 7" 45 [9] Various artist compilation appearances Title Release info Year Track(s) F Notes Northern Soul 2007 Centre City Records CENCCD001 2007 "Stand On My Own Two Feet" "Non Stop Destination" CD + DVD Disco 2008 Centre City Records CENCCD002 2007 "There's A Storm Coming On" CD Yesterday And Tomorrow Centre City Records CENCCD003 2008 "Baby I'm Still The Same Man" CD Northern Soul 2008 Centre City Records CENCCD004 2008 "Don't Leave Me Stranded" CD Starr also does backing vocals for "You Threw A Lucky Punch" by Fay Jones[10] Reaching For The Very Best Goldsoul GOLDENCD009 Centre City Records GOLDENCD009 2008 "Stand On My Own Two Feet" CD [11] Northern Soul 2009 Centre City Records CENCCD007 Wienerworld WNRCD5050 2009 "Back In The Middle Of A Broken Heart" CD + DVD Northern Soul 2010 Centre City Records CENCCD009 Wienerworld WNRCD5056 2010 "Let Me Be The Guy" CD Starr also does backing vocals for "Lost In The Wind" by Fay Jones Northern Soul 2011 Centre City Records CENCCD011 Wienerworld WNRCD5066 2012 "Conquer The World" CD Northern Soul 2012 Centre City Records CENCCD012 Wienerworld WNRCD5067 2012 "Checking My Mailbox" CD [12] ## References 1. *UK Music Reviews*, September 11 - [INTERVIEW: Angelo Starr By Kevin Cooper](http://www.ukmusicreviews.co.uk/2015/09/11/) 1. *The Guardian*, Sunday 23 August 2015 - [Lemar and Angelo Starr’s special musical relationship](https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/aug/23/lemar-and-angelo-starr-special-musical-relationship) 1.
