Clandestine is a funk and soul group from the NH seacoast region that draws heavily upon jazz and improvisation, playing both popular tunes and originals.
Originally from Memphis, TN, Bernell Jones II is a saxophonist and songwriter based in NYC. He is known not only for his playing but also for disrupting the content creation industry in the music sector with his consistent stream of viral music-comedy videos on Instagram and TikTok.Bernell picked up the saxophone at age ten after primarily playing piano for four years. This was a huge turning point in his life. Although he doesn’t consider himself a professional pianist, it aided him in enhancing his compositional skills and his understanding of music.
His discography showcases a variety of musical influences from his upbringing, such as gospel, jazz, blues, R&B, etc. Bernell has worked alongside artists such as Ms. Lauryn Hill, Wyclef Jean, Philip Harper, Julius Rodriguez, and more. He credits his writing style to the influences his parents played around the house growing up, such as Earth, Wind & Fire, Michael Jackson, Maxwell, and Janet Jackson, along with jazz influences such as Roy Hargrove, Miles Davis, and Herbie Hancock.
On his ambitious genre-defying debut album ‘TYPEWRITER,’ released July 2, 2024, Bernell aims to pull together all of his influences while keeping a consistent signature sound across the project, even while the songs may vary from genre to genre.
Bernell is currently an artist for P. Mauriat Instruments, a company specializing in saxophone manufacturing.
