Congratulations to Alexander who was one of 10 selected artists in this year's LIMF Academy talent development programme. Alexander will have exclusive access to activities, networks and insider know-how from the music industry.  ALEXNDER is a 17 year old singer-songwriter and artist from the Wirral. From getting guitar lessons at age 12 to utilising online videos to teach himself, ALEXNDER has matured from a ’typical singer-songwriter’ to more of an ‘Indie Pop’ and ‘Synth Pop’ artist.
