Best known for being the charismatic bass player & backing vocalist of the Australian progressive metal band VOYAGER, Perth based musician Alex Canion takes the helm to navigate through the murky waters of alternative/heavy rock with his debut solo release, ‘Birthmark’.
Alex has released a short rockumentary detailing the process of the EP’s creation over more than 6 years and you can watch ‘The Making of Birthmark’ now HERE.
Alex Canion talks about the long process and perseverance it took to get him to this point.
“Reflecting on the time I spent making Birthmark, it serves as a great lesson in artistic commitment, and highlights the personal value in seeing a project through to the end, even if it takes years to complete.”
Recorded in a guitar shop after hours and over the course of 6 years, ‘Birthmark’ will release independently on 25th October 2021, Alex’s birthday. To celebrate the launch of the EP and finally having these songs release to the world, he has now released the music video for the song ‘Sorrowtar’, a term he coined during his throes with depression.
