Spending most of her time on a soccer scholarship while studying maths and physics in New York, Alex the Astronaut spent her term break in Australia to see her loved ones and save money for recording and the year ahead. The pressures of her schedule working multiple jobs – which included coaching athletics, tutoring high-schoolers, working in a café, being a nanny and playing music at restaurants – fast became unsustainable. When writing ‘Already Home’, Alex the Astronaut explains: “I was people watching on the bus home from one of my jobs and realised how many people experience this out of control feeling for the majority of their lives. It actually made me feel better to think of how much people do just so they can come home to someone they care about and so they can have something to eat and somewhere to sleep.” |
