The soul syllable. What is it? Well, It’s you. It is the in-depth journey  into your moment through the lens of the random and marvelous. Meet Jeanette Berry. She’s the speaker-box which houses your soul; beckoning you to dance fanatically in your living room. She is the unapologetic anti-diva that radio forgot. She’s the thump…a flaming upper-cut to the vocally familiar and mundane. Her voice is an introduction into the amazing, inviting you into the tantric existence of being a soul nerd.

My talented ex-roommate, good friend and sax player posted about me in his blog! Reblog if you like! Spread the word about my as an artist and my music!
