Building on emotional writing, crafty cynicism and melodic, yet melancholy verse Alex Holderness offers listeners an unusual glimpse into an unusual world. He brings to his lyrical pallet the grinding worlds of Capital Hill and Wall Street, and the fanatical, yet uninspiring world of the dot-comers. His songs suggest a man tormented by the need to verbally communicate in a world of deaf ears. Alex quickly and effectively rips through your personal past with his softly persuasive, yet deeply mourning tone. This is one writer who's pain and pleasure you will feel; his music will take you deep inside yourself to feelings both sublime and dreadful. Confident and curious in lyric, strong and melodic in song, Holderness' music finds home with both the angst and splendor of youth and emotional longing of growing up.
