Currently in Europe taking the world by storm, Canadian Billboard-charting recording artist, alternative soul singer Avery Raquel has been entertaining audiences professionally for over a decade. Having released four solo albums now to critical acclaim and airplay across North America and the world, her latest self-titled release, debuted on the Canadian iTunes Top 200 R&B/soul album chart at #5. Five tracks from that album were finalists in the John Lennon Songwriting Competition in 2022, in four different categories, with one winning the Grand Prize in the pop category.
Influenced by artists and songwriters such as Carole King, Amy Winehouse and Etta James, Avery creates personal yet relatable songs that are a soulful, fun mix of R&B/soul and pop with a flavour of her jazz and blues experiences.
New single, “You,” was written by Avery as a songwriting challenge that she gave herself during COVID. The inspiration came from communication issues in a past relationship. “You” was written with the idea of a past situationship that I was in. The idea of not knowing what the other person wants with little communication on the matter. Communication is key 😉
