The Pulse of Entertainment: Alex Harris to Release ‘Back
to Us' on Shanachie, Promotes Single ‘Millionaire'
(March 8, 2024) - "It's something reflective of my Georgia roots,"
said R&B/Country/Soul singer Alex Harris about his Shanachie Entertainment April 12, 2024 album
release titled "Back to Us". "It's my interpretation of what I experienced, and
I am sharing it with the world."
Sent to radio
around Valentine's Day, ahead of the album release, was the single "Millionaire." Recorded
in Nashville, the "Back to Us" album features assistance from songwriters Ruby Amanfu (Beyonce'), Sam Ashworth (H.E.R.),
David Harris (H.E.R.), and Shannon Sanders (John Legend), and production assistance from David Harris (Alicia Keys) and Kelvin
Welch (Garth Brooks).
"He is in the middle," Alex said about his seven siblings, of which producer David Harris
is one. "The oldest is a girl. I'm the youngest. There are five brothers and three sisters. One is my God-brother we
grew up with him."
Alex Harris is a preacher's kid, and you can hear
it in his soulful voice.
"We'd turn our parents' living room into a rehearsal
hall and set-up a stage outside," he added laughing a little.
When I asked what the title of the album meant, he said, "Everyone
has a story...what it was to desire the love...the feel of it. Let's get back to basics...celebrate our existence."
Harris holds
a bachelor's in arts in human services, a master's in theology and a doctorate in organizational leadership. He has performed
for both President Obama's and Biden's Inaugural Galas. He currently resides in Florida and is operating a nonprofit Arts
Conservatory in Petersburg, Florida to serve the under-served and at-risk communities by using the arts.
The "Back to Us"
(Shanachie) album will offer 11 selections and will feature vocal assistance from the group Monophonics, Ruby Amanfu, and
Sam Ashworth. www.Shanachie.com www.AlexHarrisOfficial.com
