Biography

Though Krystol never achieved a knockout smash, their efforts as a mid-'80s female R&B act ultimately helped pave the way for later luminaries such as Exposé and En Vogue. In addition to solidifying a distinctive group sound, each of the quartet's members was capable of delivering solid lead performances. Coupled with Leon Sylvers III's nouveau R&B/funk production, the resulting material was trendsetting. Krystol was ultimately the outgrowth of several earlier groups with slightly varying lineups. In the mid-'70s, Los Angeles-based teenagers Robyrda Stiger (later changing the first name spelling to Roberta), Tina Scott, and Karon Floyd formed Crystal Blue, a local act that enjoyed success in clubs such as ~Total Experience and ~Maverick's Flats. The group disbanded by the latter part of the decade, but the members remained active in the industry.
