Berel Alexander is a songwriter and vocalist based in the Bay Area.  His unique approach to nostalgic R&B and soul is stirring audiences across the globe.  His crystalline falsetto and richly hued tone is a cornerstone to his enticing sound. BEREL states “Swimming in sounds, I stumbled head over heels into a surreal moment of musical bliss, trying not to take myself too seriously.” With the support of producers, instrumentalists, and songwriters from the Los Angeles music scene, BEREL has create an amalgamated blend of R&B, soul, jazz, and a touch of indie folk.  Described as a gracious romance, a cooled-out version of soul, brimming with energy. His latest single, “Gossip & Rumors” was produced by Aabo and Danny Dwyer. The subject matter deals with seeking an unattainable love.

Positives:

BEREL fuses a splash of old-school R&B with the musical depth of soulful crooning. Reminiscent of JMSN, Xavier Omär, and Tom Misch he compliments the idiom with his own musical depth.

Bottom Line:

BEREL draws from his own life experiences, he folds them into relatable stories that harken a 60s and 70s throwback panache. His sound is firmly influenced by jazz and soul of another era, yet with an ear toward the future and present styles. The end result is a stylistic smoothness that offers depth and sensuality. “Music helps me live in the moment. That’s the best high. It’s the best effect music can have on us” BEREL explains. Swirling with a retro sound "Gossip & Rumors,” with get your groove back. That’s the short of it!
