Alex Apolline is a singer-songwriter from Glasgow, now based in London. Spending years of her life bound to an idea of who she was meant to be, Alex lived feeling like an outsider in her own skin. Following her instinct to break free from the external ideals of perfection which had dictated her life, Alex allowed herself to be honest and vulnerable through her music. Her songs are a therapeutic expression of her deepest thoughts and emotions, and the relatable narratives she weaves in her demos have connected with the online music community.
Early demos landed Alex Apolline a place on an artist development programme in partnership with Apple, where she was mentored by Nile Rodgers and Fraser T Smith (Adele, Stormzy, James Morrison, Tinchy Stryder). She’s also been championed by the BBC and Reprezent Radio. Her debut single “inevitable” (co-written with and produced by Cat Reynolds) was released in March 2023 and has already been seen by over 400,000 TikTok users and clocked up over 150,000 Spotify streams. She is currently recording her debut EP To See Through My Own Skin, which is produced by Michael Fink and Roy Kerr (London Grammar, Birdy, Aurora) among others. Her songs weave genuine and truthful lyrics with cathartic melodies that unfold like a poignant journey through life’s highs and lows. Sonically, her music sits in a world between London Grammar and Lana Del Rey.
