Vibe curator of musical experiences…
That’s how Alex Burns, aka DJ Al B describes himself as a DJ, which also includes his self professed title as Mr. R&B Mood4ever. Hailing from Baton Rouge, LA but based out of New Orleans—Burns is enjoy flexing his musical roots. Having grown up on his parents' eclectic musical taste of funk, jazz, soul and rock, Al B infused his own leanings into R&B, house and of course hip-hop of the late 80s, 90s and early 2000s. Alex will tell you that he has an array of musical influences.
As a on-the-ground member of his local community, Al B is no stranger to the ups-and-downs of music scenes. Though he is an upcoming player to the art form, he loves playing small venues, patios/backyards and special events. His love for music goes beyond the spectrum of mixing tunes—where he really shines is his dope selections and ability curate experiences that touch everyone in the room. As a Black trans man, he has special interest in LGBTQ+ spaces and wants to provide sophisticated listening pleasures for queer POC.
“My passion for music and people is intertwined in my purpose!”
