Indie Rock from Alec Berlin

Originally hailing from Cleveland, Ohio, now based in Brooklyn, Alec Berlin is the talented instrumentalist who’s become a mainstay of the New York City live scene, playing everything from intimate downtown venues right up to Radio City Music Hall and everything in between. Earning a Masters Degree in Jazz Performance at Boston’s New England Conservatory before cutting his teeth for over two decades as an in-demand session artist on stages and in the studio, he’s more recently been venturing out as a solo artist under his own name.

Making his debut in 2000, he released his debut album Crossing Paths and has since dropped a string of stellar singles, EPs and albums over the last two years. Offering an upbeat sound of instrumental pop rock music, full of grooving rhythms and intricate lead guitar work, his music will have you singing along even in the absence of lyrics.

Using his virtuoso guitar skills to fill the melodic void left in the wake of no sung vocals, he lays down infectious lead lines full of character, using his six-strings to serve as his vocal chords. Now he brings us the title track from his latest EP What I Wish I Had Said with the new single “What I Wish I Had Said”.

Delivering an instantly memorable and uplifting sound, on his latest single Alec Berlin runs through a charming mix of funky rock sounds, creating a song that offers a modern style blended with retro tones. Packed full of rhythm, the track dynamically shifts through multiple vibes to paint a beautifully melodic sonic picture that serves to showcase his talents as a composer as well as his musicianship prowess.
