On this episode of The Mixtape, we're joined by Alex Canion, bassist and vocalist from Voyager, one of Australia's most genre-defying and electrifying bands. Alex takes us on the band's remarkable journey to the Eurovision Song Contest, revealing the highs, the nerves, and the surreal moments of representing Australia on the world stage.
We dive into Voyager’s latest single, “Seen Better Days”, exploring its emotional depth and what it means for the band’s evolving sound. Alex also shares his love for the haunting beauty of Jeff Buckley, why getting an early night is underrated, and how it all feeds into his creative mindset.
And of course, no episode of The Mixtape is complete without our signature segment—Alex curates an imaginary mixtape of tracks that have shaped his life, influenced his music, and soundtracked pivotal moments along the way.
Whether you're a die-hard Voyager fan or discovering them for the first time, this episode is packed with insight, laughs, and musical gems.
