Lozzie Alexander will tell you the truth before she tells you it’s fine.
A soul singer-songwriter with country at the edges, Alexander pairs a formally trained voice with songs that refuse the tidied version of a feeling. She can hold a lyric to a whisper, then fill a room by the chorus; her writing follows the same instinct—intimate, vivid, sharp-witted, and drawn directly from life.
Born in Australia and raised in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Alexander was singing before she was speaking in full sentences. Music was woven into the everyday texture of her family life: Sunday-morning singalongs, church choir, holiday carols, and the uncomplicated joy of people making things with their hands and voices because that was simply what they did. As a child, she became the youngest member of her church choir and its go-to singer for the big gospel moments—an early indication of both her range and her comfort connecting with a room.
Her songs arrive the same way she has always experienced music: less as planned compositions than thoughts she cannot leave unsaid. Alexander writes from lived experience, allowing contradiction, darkness, humor, and specificity to stay in the frame. Tracks including “Worth the Wait,” “Time to Burn,” and “Rafiki” reflect that approach—songs built not around a polished version of the story, but the version that was true when she needed to sing it.
Before pursuing music professionally, Alexander earned a degree in graphic design from Washington University in St. Louis and built a career in tech and product management. But the further she advanced, the more impossible it became to ignore the absence music had left in her life. Eventually, watching from the sidelines hurt more than stepping into the vulnerability of performing. She chose the latter.
That decision has brought her back to the place where everything resolves: the stage. Once the first note lands, Alexander’s nerves give way to presence—an honest, unguarded connection between voice, song, and audience. Now based in St. Augustine, Florida, she is assembling her live band and building toward a new chapter of releases, performances, and touring.
