Roster: Alex Frew talks to Notion Magazine

 

Rising Canadian artist and songwriter Alex Frew spoke to Notion Magazine about his new single ‘Something To Hold Onto’, the upcoming EP and dealing with mental health issues.


“Some may be young at heart, but Alex Frew really is just undeniably young. Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Frew struck his luck early landing a development deal with Warner Music at age 15.

 Now at the ripe age of 19, Frew’s ready to break out into stardom with his gift of transforming unflinching self-examination into radio-ready pop gold with his debut EP. Starting out as a multitude of around 60 songs, it was eventually whittled down to six cohesive moody yet magnetic numbers that align with the collection’s title.

 Beginning at home on his acoustic guitar, the songs transformed into an EP with growth and change, desire and dread, discovery and confusion, and the highs and lows of adulthood’s journey with notable empathy. Documenting personal moments mixed into the raw intimacy of his vocals lapped over transportive soundscapes births the sound of Alex Frew’s music.

 In conversation with Notion, Alex Frew opens up about how his personal experiences influenced his new EP, ‘Something To Hold On To’,  the importance of a creative escape, and much more.” - Notion Magazine
