About

There’s a particular magic that happens when Alexa Givens sings— not the kind that demands attention, but the kind that earns it. Her voice, featherlight yet grounded, carries the weight of a thousand diary pages and the clarity of a single truth well told.

 

Born and raised between D.C. and the Maryland suburbs, Givens grew up immersed in artists who made feeling sound like power: Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Amy Winehouse... and so many more. Her musical roots span jazz, R&B, pop, theatre, and avant-garde production—and her work doesn’t just reflect those influences, it rearranges them. Even at 21, her work reflects a rare versatility — equally at home onstage or behind the console, arranging harmonies with surgical clarity or building full soundscapes from scratch. She took those early lessons to heart: sing with intention, stack harmony like memory, and never waste a lyric.

​

Now a Presidential Scholar at Berklee College of Music studying music business and music production and engineering, Givens is more than a singer: she’s an architect of sound. Her music lives in the in-between: somewhere between polished pop, experimental, and warm R&B, between dissonance and resolution, between heartbreak and reclamation. She’s drawn to “vibrant colors," as she puts it— chords that crunch, vocals that shimmer, progressions that feel like déjà vu in the best way. Every song is a time capsule, a sonic photograph, a way to say "this is how it felt" without ever having to explain.

Her debut single “Broken Record” introduced her as a storyteller of quiet intensity— a pop love song threaded with softness and longing. The follow-up, “Screw You,” proved her range: cheeky, sharp-edged, and effortlessly modern, it’s the kind of breakup anthem that leaves glitter in its wake. In 2022, she appeared on a Grammy-nominated project, but accolades feel almost beside the point— the artistry speaks first.

​

In 2025, Givens is releasing her most ambitious work yet. As a vocalist, arranger, engineer, and businesswoman, she moves with purpose—and everything she creates is designed to feel like a timestamp: real, vivid, and impossible to ignore. Her songs don’t just sound good. They haunt, shimmer, and demand to be felt.
