Avenoir is one of R&B/Soul’s most exciting new artists to emerge over the past several years. Fusing live instrumentation with his cinematically soulful unique honey-drenched vocals that have a touch of contemporary R&B, alternative soul and a touch of that 90’s R&B/Soul so many of us grew up on and love. Avenoir’s vocals are uniquely defined and not designated to any one genre. You can hear some of the Prince-esque and Lenny Kravitz-esque influence that shows the many different kinds of great music he grew up on and makes him a standout in the ever-growing great R&B/Soul landscape. That has brought us the likes of such talented artists as BJ the Chicago Kid, H.E.R., Snoh Aalegra, Jessie Reyez, Jorja Smith, Victoria Monét, Sinéad Harnett, Ari Lennox, ChloexHalle, Lucky Daye, India Shawn, VanJess, SiR, Tinashe, Elijah Blake, Ravyn Lenae, Adrian Daniel, 6LACK, UMI and Mikhala Jené. To name just a few of the several talented to emerge in recent times. Avenoir’s cinematically soulful piano-driven just released new single, Heaven, the perfect example of that sound and allowing him to really show it off alongside also rising new R&B/Soul singer, songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalists, Bryant Barnes. Which Barnes alongside Avenoir, YMX Beats and Andrew Luce helped co-produce. Barnes showing off his great production skills along with his own pretty solid vocals and songwriting for the striking new collaboration between both rising artists in which they in such perfect harmony sing about a love they are so head over heels and want to take to heaven. As they sing on part of the chorus.
Avenoir and Barnes also debuting alongside the cinematically striking new single. A just as cinematically striking new accompanying video for the record. Which shows both Avenoir and Barnes in different really personal intimate moments with their respective women doing the things that would make them be so in love with them that they want to take them to heaven. You can see as they sing the heavenly loving lyrics how it helps bring them and the record even more to life. To possibly make you love an already great record from Avenoir and Bryant even more. Which is what great art and music videos are supposed to do. This record showing the immense amount of talent that both artists have and why they both have the possibility and potential to have long illustrious careers in music and especially the R&B/Soul space. Which is currently is as striving as it has been in some time.
