Alexander Star learned his lesson about the music industry early on: It’s one thing to be able to move units, but it takes something much greater than a buzz to move people.

Mr. Star achieves an attractive balance between ‘commercial’ and ‘conscious’ that makes him a one-of-a-kind writer and a stellar performer. His music rings with a distinct clarity of thought that he describes as a “breath of fresh ear.” With his new release, TETRYS – Get In Where U Fit In (available for free download at www.AlexanderStar.com), he liberated himself as a songwriter. He references the game of Tetrys as a metaphor to describe his writing process: “Thoughts drop down…I rotate shapes…figure out the best fit, and then I put ‘em in place – TETRYS.”
