Southern-bred, alternative R&B singer-songwriter Mereba artistically embodies self-understanding on The Breeze Grew a Fire, her grandest work to date. Mereba peacefully transmutes her beginnings, looking upon her closest kinships & friendships with a keen understanding of their steadying inspirational force. Surrounded by the gentle Breeze of these relationships & recollections, Mereba is empowered as both an artist & mother, while also being reminded to nurture her childlike wonder. As singer, rapper, songwriter & producer, Mereba gracefully shines on the follow-up to her bounteous 2019 debut, The Jungle Is the Only Way Out. In escaping the Jungle, Mereba faced the paradigm shift of birthing a son in 2021 & getting accustomed to a rapidly changing self-outlook. Mereba’s creative output has always relied on her innermost reflections & ideas on whatever was happening around her; but in motherhood, the singer’s perspective widened while her inspiration became more focused, & more individually powerful. The transformation brought Mereba to the intimacy of DIY recording sessions, providing an honest & organic foundation to Breeze. Mereba tapped her longtime production collaborator Sam Hoffman to co-assemble the album’s rich production, which parallels its folk-like warmth. While nowhere near the end of her musical trek, The Breeze Grew a Fire is a loving, inspiring return to origin, one where Mereba frees a painful past, eases into future possibilities, & goes with life’s flow.
