More than words on a page. So much more than a strum of the guitar. Meet William Davenport. Soulful singer extraordinaire. Welcome.

It was always at the karaoke parties where the real Tre’ Rochelle would appear. There, the powerhouse modern soul singer commanded attention with spot-on renditions of prime Chaka, Whitney, and Mariah. No one wanted to follow her, and no one could. Her gifts were singular. 

Today, the San Antonio, Texas-based neo-soul singer-songwriter steps forward with her 1st release "I Want You" from her sultry and sensual debut Spectrum of Violet EP, Slow Motion, produced by her creative partner Eddy Versatile Keyz.

Tre’ is a songwriter with a narrative approach to her lyrics and a jazzy, soulful sensibility. In her words, she dares to express the challenges of love with unflinching realness. Her concepts and stories are smoothly contrasted with a neo-soul directed aesthetic that’s vibrantly informed by influences such as Chaka Kahn, Stevie Wonder, Tamia, Chanté Moore, Jill Scott, Eric Roberson, Whitney Houston, and Lalah Hathaway. In addition to being a poetic and a boldly vulnerable lyricist, Tre’ is a dynamically expressive singer with a stunning vocal range that spans silken whispered vocalizing to church-roof rattling belting.

These days, Tre’ considers her biggest accomplishment to be providing for her four children, and showing them a positive example of how a person can overcome obstacles and come out shining. Other current life highlights include being chosen to perform at an exclusive wedding in Mexico City, Mexico; studying at the Musical Arts Center of San Antonio and online Berklee College of Music; being the lead vocalist of M3 Live!: Massey and the Masterminds; being an MBA graduate; and her work as an actress, performing in local short film and Lackland Performing Arts Group theatrical productions. Tre’s latest accomplishment is being selected as a participating songstress in the Inaugural “LIT”erary Lounge SA (DREAMWEEK 2020 edition)—a prestigious creative event hosted in the San Antonio community.

Now we are being introduced to the first installment of Tre’s Spectrum series project. The five-song EP is steamy, sexy, but it also moves through some of the realities of intimate relationships. The album’s first single, out February 2020, is the seductively soulful “I Want You.” The track’s delicate atmospherics makes a satiny bed for Tre’ to vocalize with tantalizing expressivity. The song speaks of a longing for what must be accepted as unobtainable and letting go of that fantasy to stand in truth.

Tre’ will be grouping her music on different color spectrum EPs  to show her versatility in genres and life topics. “The next album may be more modern, or it may be more smooth jazz-tinged and cover childhood untold stories. I am a songwriter first, so my options are limitless,” Tre’ says. She continues: “With this project, I am choosing to come out of hiding and share pieces of me that I was once afraid to reveal with the goal of healing myself and showing a path of healing to others.”
