Alex the Astronaut

Sydney NSW, Australia

About

An unforgettably original lyricist, Alex the Astronaut cycles through a series of radiantly detailed slices of life, documenting moments of both the seemingly mundane - a haircut, a beach trip, a supermarket shop - to the utterly life-changing - experiences as a caregiver, the PTSD that followed, and an autism diagnosis. Alex imbues their songs with equal parts self-awareness and sensitivity, imagination and idiosyncratic humour, transforming the way we view ourselves and the world around us.
