Alex the Astronaut

Alexandra Lynn (born 1995), who performs as Alex the Astronaut, has been described as one of "Australia's most powerful and important songwriters". She released her first two EPs in 2017 - the first: To Whom It May Concern which features the single Already Home and was described by Huffington post as "a melancholy number about a bus ride and ruminations on the mundanities of life" and includes the line "there's billionaires for president, and parking fines at hospitals". The second EP - See You Soon featured the single Not Worth Hiding which reached No. 23 on Triple J Hottest 100.Alex the Astronaut released a couple of standalone singles, Waste Of Time, and Happy Song, both of which have been played on high rotation at Triple J. She previewed both songs live with a full band performance at Splendour In The Grass in 2018. Alex released a new single I Like To Dance early August 2019 which Brooklyn Vegan described as tuneful folk-pop to tell a haunting story.
