Lexi Berg – Lonely Satellite

Lexi Berg is a Swedish-American singer-songwriter based in London. In her life so far Lexi has shed many layers. She grew up on a houseboat in Stockholm, At 5 she was the child prodigy training to be a classical pianist. By 11 she was performing in churches and concert venues to hundreds of people around her hometown of Stockholm.

Just a year later she was a pop singer scouted by record companies but after a family tragedy, she fled to America, then Edinburgh via London, and slowly began to work out who she was as an artist away from the input of others.

In 2019, she self-released her debut single What If, as Berg, a haunting ballad produced with The Horrors’ Faris Badwan that’s since taken on a life of its own via the soundtrack to the critically acclaimed drama, Pieces of a Woman.

Growing up in Sweden I remember looking to the moon, the sun, and the stars for guidance when I felt lost or lonely. The vastness of the universe gives you perspective. I often looked up in London, but all I could see were satellites. Jim Eliot, my producer, invited me to Wales where I felt my soul finally could breathe. Wales woke me up and reminded me of my childhood.  “Lonely Satellite” is a song for those of us who feel alone in this world. We move in parallel, like satellites in the sky.

Lonely Satellite is an antidote to urban anxiety.
