🔎 Alexander Wren:
His debut album, To Whom It May Concern, resembles an artistic Frankenstein - an amalgamation of songs plucked from the New Yorker’s obsessive 500+ catalog. Written to a God, a woman, and an audience largely unbeknownst to him, Alexander views the project as an opportunity to formally introduce himself. The LP was produced by Micah Tawlks (COIN, Hayley Williams) and emerging is a nostalgic yet somehow timeless work - as if it were made of a peculiar and entirely unplaceable era.
In a world dominated by numbers and instant gratification, Alexander is searching for something different. He remarks that he sees music less as a vehicle for popularity in the 21st century, rather, a rich sociological tradition that we all get the privilege of participating in. Now living in Manhattan off of Central Park West, Alexander mostly wanders and thinks at the neighborhood diner; he also chats with his 93 year old friend, Wayne.
