Combining danceable drums, funky bass lines, soulful keys and pop vocal delivery with lyrical insights ranging from overcoming life's struggles to falling in love on the dancefloor, The Belief Cycle's music aims to leave you feeling good. The Belief Cycle is an Electro-Pop duo based out of St. Louis with the mission of having a good time and spreading more love into the world. Officially formed in 2016 by STL native Drew Mantia on lead vocals, guitar, bass and production and KC native Ryan Marquez on keyboards, bass and vocals, The Belief Cycle pair wrote their first songs together in 2007. Mantia moved to Chicago in 2012 and that year his production and Marquez’s keys became the foundation for underground hit, “LSD,” by ProbCause featuring Chance the Rapper. The “LSD” sound would go on to influence the careers of Chicago collaborators ProbCause & The Palmer Squares and the formation of The Belief Cycle. As of 2019, both members of The Belief Cycle are back living in St. Louis working closely on this project. 2019 saw the most TBC live shows yet and the debut album, “Celebrate,” was released in April 2020. One of the album’s singles, “Toothbrush,” would go on to be placed in the popular CW prime time show “All American” which was the #1 most streamed show when Season 3 debuted on Netflix. As of 2022, The Belief Cycle are completing and preparing to start releasing singles from their next album “Beyond Belief.”
