Berel Alexander is an Oakland-based Singer/Songwriter and high-energy front man raised in the rural northern coast of California. Only 28 years old, for the past 8 years he has been "layin' it down" traveling, performing, and tightening a potent 5-piece band, cultivating a sonically refreshing sound. Berel riffs the acoustic guitar with tuneful melodies, connecting people in all walks of life. The ensemble features hypnotic keys and an electric cello spewing a slew of analog effects, all on top hearty drum & bass rhythm. Driven by unique guitar work and a passion for soulful music of many genres, they enjoy mixing it up to create their own sounding blend of Blues, Soul, Latin, Jazz, Hip- Hop, and Reggae. This feel good show is highlighted by thoughtful and stylish lyrics that seem to say, "hope still has a place in this crazy world".
Berel has played music all his life and written songs since he was a kid. Inspired early on by his father's vintage vinyl and collection of homemade mix tapes, he was brought up in a home where singing was always encouraged. Motown classics add to his influence, as well as modern neo-soul the likes of D'angelo and live hip-hop a la The Roots. Listeners at his live shows have often compared Berel to a combo of James Taylor, Jonny Lang, and Amos Lee.
