Alt-R&B Artist Alex Harris Drops 'Say Less' Video
Today (June 21), Texas-hailing Atlanta-based rising alternative R&B newcomer and Epic Records recording artist Alex Harris releases the music video for his catchy single "Say Less."
The singer and songwriter fuses classic and current pop, hip-hop, alternative and R&B melodies throughout his bold debut EP Pink Cloud, and Say Less is no different.
The video sees Harris in the countryside breaking it down all by himself, except for the yellow backdrop that intermittently makes an appearance.
"Say Less" stems from Harris' debut EP Pink Cloud, which arrived in February. Beyond reflecting his own musical eclecticism, Pink Cloud is also streaked with Harris' own personal experiences. "When I was living in Dallas, I was drinking and partying a lot while trying to get my life together and figure out what the next step was," he reflects while discussing the album's real-life influences. "My family were like, 'What are you doing? It's time to buckle down and get some things going.'" At a crossroads, Harris decided to get sober. "I had tried everything to keep my anxiety down, but I was in denial.
I needed to stop everything and re-adjust my focus."
During this time of self-exploration, Pink Cloud's conceptual bent began to form. "I want to bring honesty through my music," Harris confesses while discussing what he wants listeners to take away from his music. "It's okay to be vulnerable and express how you feel. There's so much pressure to look cool, be cool, and control your life through social media to give the perception that everything's good. If I can give people my true interpretation of the good, bad, and ugly in my life, maybe it can encourage others to embrace those things in their life. You can better yourself." And when it comes to taking
that personal journey, the Pink Cloud EP is a great place to start.
