Biography

Cinematic yet captivatingly intimate with mysterious, old soul sensibility, Alexa Dark is a Spanish/American multi instrumentalist singer songwriter raised between London, Barcelona, Munich, and New York City. Drawing inspiration from her multicultural upbringing and her love for a range of artists (from Nancy Sinatra and Françoise Hardy to Portishead), as well as her love for film noir and French New Wave cinema, Dark began writing her own songs and poetry in her early teenage years. She quickly took this to the stage, where she began performing live in London, both solo and in different bands. It was here that Dark honed her artistic direction and arrived at her unique sound and mysterious, enticing stage presence, soundtracking a 60s, Bond-like world of mystery with a femme fatale villainess at its center. 
 Dark moved to New York City, becoming involved in the downtown music scene and began working on new material. She started releasing her noir alt-pop singles since 2021, building her sonic and visual world. Her debut EP "Dark, Vol. I," out now via AWAL, was recorded in NYC with Matt Chairavalle (Debbie Harry, Warren Zevon), mastered by Grammy-award winner Emily Lazar (Beck, Haim) and Grammy-nominated Joe Lambert (Angel Olsen, Sharon Van Etten). The 7-song EP takes the listener through a villain origin story, where Dark tells the tale of “giving into love, losing it all, and exploring the darker sides of myself." She is now based between New York City & Los Angeles.
