Avenoir (@avenoir.c), one of the brightest new stars in R&B, returns today with a cinematic and emotionally rich new single, “Heaven,” featuring rising artist Bryant Barnes. The track continues to solidify Avenoir’s position as a boundary-pushing voice in modern soul. It also came accompanied with a music video that further tells the story of the song.
Moreover, Avenoir has been making noise for himself. With 350 million global streams and a JUNO nomination for Contemporary R&B Record of the Year already under his belt, the South African-born, Alberta-raised artist is carving out a lane all his own. His latest offering, “Heaven,” blends heartfelt vulnerability with dreamy, late-night production. The track showcases a falsetto and rich lyricism that feels like a confessional wrapped in velvet.
“Heaven” builds on the momentum of Avenoir’s recent single “Art of War,” which was praised by Billboard as a “sparkling alt-R&B fantasia” and drew comparisons to Prince. Now, with “Heaven,” Avenoir offers another deeply introspective look into his world. Moreover, this time joined by Bryant Barnes, whose soulful contribution adds warmth and depth to the already glowing track.
He’s definitely contributing to Canada’s growing R&B scene. With “Heaven” marking another standout entry in his catalog, Avenoir’s next chapter is shaping up to be his most exciting yet.
Watch “Heaven” now and stay tuned. Avenoir’s new project is on the horizon.
