A biography for Alex Winstonhasn’t been written yet.
“I'm actually one of the few kids in my grade, especially girls, who didn't end up going to college, just because I already knew what I wanted to do. I had already been actively working in music before I graduated.”
“I started bands at a pretty young age and played with my friends back in Detroit. I've always known that I wanted to do this. It was all I was ever interested in doing. I never had, outside of music, any extracurricular activities that I took part in.”
“I like real instruments, and try to stay from anything that sounds too synthetic.”
“I started taking music lessons and singing when I was about ten.”
“I took opera lessons. I can't read music to save my life, but I would just copy and get away with it. I think that they thought I could read music, but I can't. I would just listen.”
“Most of all I want to make pop music that has something real behind it.”
“Growing up, I never listened to English music. I was more into Motown, as well as early rock n' roll like Chuck Berry and Little Richard.”
