Alex The Astronaut is the stage name for Alexandra Lynn, a Sydney-based singer-songwriter who plays indie folk with an upbeat and playful style. Even when she takes it down a notch in a contemplative mood, there is a sense of bounciness to her songs that makes them more engaging and approachable. On the other hand, She also has the ability to inject a sense of intimacy to her songs without having to take it down a notch, so it all works out for the best. Her songs are at home in the standard three or four piece band set up, though her delivery is just as charming playing solo on an acoustic guitar. She has a knack for putting together the kind of melodies that give the listener a sense of instant familiarity.
