Alexa Cappelli is a 22-year-old singer-songwriter from Southern California. She already started taking voice lessons at 7, which helped her come out of her shell. At the Orange County School of The Arts she studied Commercial Music. Judging from her recent songs, she paid very good attention.

Ahead of her second EP Confused @ 22 – due out on 22 February – she releases her new single Body Language. An addictive song with equal parts electro-pop and darkwave, and above all a great groove.

“The song is about getting to know someone in every possible way except for in person”,  Cappelli says on the track. “It could be a long distance fling, or a new someone you meet online. They call and say all the right things, but in the heat of the spark, you remember they don’t actually know the real you. This song is a fun take on the idea to not judge a book by its cover, or even the preface for that matter. Good intentions are important for romantic relationships, but so is having a safe, accepting, and fun physical presence. How can you know when you haven’t spent much time in the same room?”
