In late 2010, Alex recorded studio tracks of some of his earliest material with Robert LeBlanc of Night Owl Productions. Tracks for all of the songs were not fully completed and mastered, and they were never released. As Alex begins thinking seriously about an EP or CD release, we've gone back and listened to some of the recordings he did with Robert, in what he calls The Night Owl Sessions.Both in style and voice (and hair length!), Alex has changed significantly since 2010 and anything recorded today will definitely sound different. When he recorded these songs, he was just out of high school. But he had written some of the songs years earlier, when he was more full of teenaged angst and, in some cases, anger. You can hear it in the lyrics.
We've uploaded one of these songs for you to take a listen. Bring You Down is clearly an angry song and, apparently, has resonated with many people. The demo version has been on this site for several years and has more plays than any song posted so far.
I think you'll agree, the additional instrumentation compliments the acoustic tracks nicely and fits the song well. Give it a listen, and tell us what you think by leaving a comment.
