Suddenly bursting onto music radars H.AL A.LEXANDER L.INTON awakened a longing thirst for soul music with his self penned and produced heart throb hits 'Cardiac Arrest' and 'Smile'.
With an exceptional dynamic voice reminisent of Sam Cooke, Marvin Gaye and Al Green he quickly rose to national and regional stardom and was nominated for eight awards at the 2007 Barbados Music Awards where he captured Song of the Year for the single Cardiac Arrest - a category shared with fellow Barbadian international artist Rihanna who picked up Song of te Year (female), Best New Artist, Songwriter of the Year, and R&B Single of the Year.
Literally born into a world of music, both his parents are classically trained musicians whose passion saw Hal constantly immersed in a heady musical cocktail of Nat King Cole and Al Green blended with bits of reggae dancehall legend Bob Marley and stirred with The 3 Tenors and countless other great artists."My parents listened to everything", says Hal.
This was just the start for the young artist and national academic scholar. Since then he has gone on to captivate audiences in his rare, electrifying and sold out performances.
Hal's rise to stardom takes a twist and turn in 2008..stay tuned for more.
