Bio
Brisbane based musician Your Man Alex Smith sets out to find the perfect blend of musical theatre and rock. Using catchy hooks to sneak contemplative lyrics to the listener, Alex’s genre-hopping theatrical rock is a story-driven experience with a lot of heart.
While Alex is inspired by bands like Queen, Meat Loaf, Pink Floyd and The Protomen, his sound is often compared to the likes of They Might Be Giants and Ben Folds.
Alex's most recent release 'Slow Burn' took four years and was supported largely by the members of his Patreon, a community that he appreciates greatly
Alex is also the host of podcast My Songs Suck with his close friend James Kehoe. The show is available to stream on Spotify and all podcatchers.
Review
"You wanted songs; I'll give you songs" probably the highlight of the whole experience of listening to this song. I don't know if you're playing a character or if that is your genuine vibe but, it's fantastic. Sweet tune too. Your voice is rich and deep and carries the Americana/country sentiment well.
