Abraham Alexander

July 20 with KCRW DJs Dan Wilcox & Chris Douridas

From open mics in Fort Worth, TX to recent stints on the road opening for Leon Bridges, Ani DiFranco and Mavis Staples, Abraham Alexander set the stage for his 2023 debut album SEA/SONS, out on Dualtone Records in early 2023. The album is a lush, seductive affair that showcases the 31-year-old singer-songwriter’s beguiling voice—one which offers both honey and grit—and supple acoustic guitar work. The 11 tracks on SEA/SONS display a cool assuredness, along with themes of loss, redemption, longing, anguish and joy. There is a refreshing genre fluidity at play as elements of folk, pop, rock, R&B, gospel and even electronic music meld and tangle.
