notes
He blends R&B, Rock, Jazz and Funk in a most interesting way. His self-described 'Eclectic Soul' is complimented by a smooth vocal performance and sophisticated songwriting. Can you imagine a jam session with Lenny Kravitz and Sade?
Welcome to the Alternative Funky Soul Planet!
The new CD, Soul Stories, is a follow-up to his previous underground cult albums- Six Dimensions and Eclectic Soul.
Six Dimensions was the start of his Alternative Soul revolution and a natural progression for Dexter after years of studying Classical & Jazz piano and voice.
Upon graduating from Howard University, Dexter founded Brown Ambition Worldwide and began producing independent projects. After linking with Rock producer, Michael Phillip Costanzo, it was a collaboration to usher in the new soul millennium.
It is here that Rock meets Soul and ignites with an energy that is connecting with the disenfranchised music audiences that are tired of the same ole song on the radio.
After much "cyberbuzz", packed live shows and much word of mouth promotion, Dexter is set to take it to the next level.

I have been a fan since day one. I love seeing the progression of quality in material, vocals, and maturity of lyrics over the course of releasing several albums. Dexter has shown us what it truly means to be indie artist.

author: CJ OvertonThe third time is definitely the charmed one for Dexter Myers. His newest release, titled Soul Stories, has charm coming out each of it's 11 cuts. With a voice that sounds comfortable as a favorite pair of tennis shoes feels, Myers croons a pleasant combination of R&B and rock. Blended well with the lyrics that Myers has written, the quality of his sound is imaginative and is bound to attract a wide variety of followers. Whether mellow or upbeat, as in cut 6, "Get Up!," Myers effortlessly pulls his listeners into the tempo. The urge to get up and dance, or move some body part to the beat is irresistible. Myers is skillful at turning the tables to mellowed-out in the very next melody, "Foolish Pride." "You know I want you/ It's plain to see/ It's foolish pride/ It don't mean a damn thing to me." The subtle use of violins adds a soulful touch to the singer's plea in keeping a relationship intact. It is refreshing to hear how each of the cuts can explore the many levels of a serious relationship, without the graphic sexuality attached to some of the more popular rap and R&B music. Myers has added to that, creative arrangements with acoustics and keyboards that will give his type of music both popularity and the stability to last beyond one hit. Dexter Myers' "Soul Stories" has an unmistakable appeal that crosses over age groups and defined musical types. Myers message is in the beat and the way it blends so easily with his lyrics. Play on, Dexter. This is a keeper!
A breath of fresh air in the stale R&B radio market. I love this CD!
author: Anthony DixonI have this CD and it is great! The artiste invites you into a peaceful calming with his mellow vocals and sound. Grab a bottle of the red and burn an incense, sit back and enjoy.
