The Sequence hailed from Columbia, SC, and consisted of Angie Brown Stone, Cheryl Cook, and Gwendolyn Chisolm. Recording for Joe Sylvia Robinson's Sugarhill Records label, they hit with Funk You Up in early 1980; Funky Sound (Tear the Roof Off), a remake of Parliament's 1976 gold single Tear the Roof Off the Sucker in summer 1981; and I Don't Need Your Love (Part One) from spring 1982. Their two charting LPs were both titled The Sequence. Angie Stone sang lead on Vertical Hold's 1993 Top Twenty R&B hit Seems You're Much Too Busy and had a gold single with There's No More Rain in This Cloud from her 1999 gold album Black Diamond. ~ Ed Hogan, Rovi
