OPAKOWANIE: GATEFOLD + 12" INSERT

Berlin's pre-eminent vocal ensemble, ‘A Song For You’ pioneers a new wave of choral music with their debut album ‘Home’.

A Song For You, are a groundbreaking vocal ensemble, uniting over 50 artists from all over the world, led by the visionary collaboration of Noah Slee and Dhanesh Jayaselan. The collective defies any form of categorisation, sitting in a sonic realm somewhere between Neo Soul, R&B and Gospel. A Song For You celebrates the rich tapestry of Berlin's musical landscape while providing a critical platform for underrepresented voices.

Over the last two years the ensemble has caught the imagination of the Berlin artistic community; most notably with their 2022 debut show at the iconic 800 capacity Volksbühne theatre which was an instant sell-out despite the band having only been known through word-of-mouth.

Their dynamic performances and refreshing embrace of choral joy has also led them to fostering creative collaborations with brands such as Levis and Carhartt. The latter of which partly-sponsored a documentary to explore the ensemble's formation as well as the albums recording process at Limusic Studios in Limoux, France, and Brewery Studios in Berlin, Germany.

Working alongside the renowned Berlin-based producer, S. Fidelity, the album features captivating collaborations with artists such as Theo Croker, Annahstasia, Moses Yoofee, Madison McFerrin, duendita, Brother Portrait, Jumoke Adeyanju and more; as well as a vast array of artists that exist within the group such as Noah Slee, Aka Kelzz, Johnny Kulo, MERON, zoudè, Nando The Native, Monica Mussungo, D.$ahin and Lyriya.

Throughout the recording of ‘Home’, A Song For You have sought to define their presence through the term ‘space’: Physically their diverse backgrounds and voices intertwine, creating a cultural space where each individual adds a unique layer to the collective. Spiritually, their music offers a space where feelings and emotions can be freely explored and processed. Harmonically, their voices merge seamlessly, forming a musical space where differences blend into beautiful unity.

“We take up space, we give space, and it’s all to celebrate the beauty of togetherness and connection. We are A Song for You.”

A Song For You continues to make waves with their captivating performances, dedication to amplifying underrepresented voices and commitment to pushing the boundaries of live soulful music and centering BiPOC narratives.

Berlin and now the world eagerly anticipates what A Song For You will bring next. This next step in their journey is surely set to take the world by storm. ‘Home’ represents togetherness, vulnerability & collective joy. ‘Home’ celebrates beauty, the moments where we feel love and finding self through ourselves. Home is you.
