Melbourne muso Alexander Biggs hasn’t even released his first EP yet, and already he’s generating major buzz here and abroad. His first singles “Tidal Wave” and “Out In the Dark” received airplay on BBC Radio 1 and KCRW, helping the tracks generate more than 1.5 million streams on Spotify and enter the viral charts in the United States and United Kingdom. His winning streak is set to continue with the release of his newie, “Figure It Out.”
This song has such a great mellow vibe to it. It’s the ideal soundtrack for car trips through country areas and backyard BBQs.
“I was facing a lot of conflict in my life,” Alexander said of the songwriting process. “But the song came out of a place of hopefulness, which is a bit different for me – I’m normally a lot more cynical. It came from a place of understanding that everything will pass. Negative things will come, but they’ll be gone soon – and you’ll ‘figure it out’, so to speak.”
“Figure It Out” is the latest cut from Alexander’s EP, Still You Sharpen Your Teeth, due out on September 15. He’ll promote the EP’s release with the following local shows.
5-8 September 2017 – BIGSOUND, Brisbane
7 October 2017 – The Toff, Melbourne
21 October 2017 – Brighton Up Bar, Sydney
