In this episode of the Wedding Songs Podcast, host Matthew Campbell interviews singer-songwriter Shane Alexander about his music career and about writing, producing, and performing music around the world.
About Shane Alexander:
Known for his intimate tenor, signature guitar style, and moody melodies, Los Angeles-based solo artist and storyteller Shane Alexander has shaped a distinctive career with his evocative indie folk and soaring California-tinged acoustic rock.
Having extensively toured the US, Europe and Canada since 2005 (both as a headliner and supporting acts like Bon Iver, Lucinda Williams, Seal, Jewel, John Hiatt, Suzanne Vega, Styx and Yes), Alexander has developed a loyal international fanbase and performed on many fabled stages, including Red Rocks, The Ryman Auditorium, and The Greek Theatre in LA. His music has appeared in dozens of television shows, commercials, and films, quietly earning more than 30 million streams. The song "Everything as One" from Alexander's 2019 album A Life Like Ours was recently featured in a national commercial for Chevrolet's 'Drive Safe' campaign.
In addition to working on his own releases, Shane can usually be found co-writing songs (both remotely and in-person) and producing acts from both sides of the pond at Buddhaland, his studio in Westlake Village, CA.
Forever Songs, Shane Alexander's 8th solo album, is out now.
