about

After a long time being busy working on other people´s projects, Alex released his second solo album "Big Business". The title track´s lyrics go back to the year 2006 with a fellow telling Alex a story about smuggling cocaine in "special places" of the human body. "Circles Around the Sun" was inspired by a thought on Neal Casal who took his life in 2019. The quintessence of the record might be the instrumental outro of "Greedy Weeds of Darkness".
