Alex Blue

Alex Blue is a folk (and pop half the time, which y'all seem to like lol) artist and singer-songwriter whose viral videos propelled her to success at a young age. For over a decade, she has written, produced, and performed songs that have resonated worldwide, setting skillful and transparent lyricism to warm and comforting melodies. She has been compared to Shawn Colvin, Janis Ian, Jewel, and Alison Krauss. Alex is a queer mother, a Mestiza Jew, and a transparent storyteller with an alphabet soup of diagnoses, a really good therapist, and a passion for advocacy and equity. She likes Rachel Weisz movies, video games, and making tortillas that puff. Thirteen years into her career, she is known as, “Just an old married lady now, but still a joy to watch.” She crowd-funded her latest record 'Kin' on Kickstarter and recorded it in Nashville with an all-women band, and with almost all women audio engineers and producers. Her first full-length album since her pop days on YouTube. It's warm and inviting, a communal space to hold the experience of grief, disconnection, love, and becoming. She hopes it will be a friend to you in your journey of becoming, too. Alex also writes a lot of pop music found in Reels. That might explain the top 5 songs on this page. At the end of the day, she just wants to make music that makes your life better, genre be damned.
