Global release on all platforms (Spotify, Apple Music etc) on Friday 13 March 2026.

Dear news and playlist editors,

Here, Alex tries to make himself and his material as accessible as possible for you, ahead of his two-song debut release “After work” on 13 March 2026. Your inclusion into news flows and playlists would be much appreciated!

In addition to the release-focused info on this page, note also your resources on the general press page (including a Q&A for context), and the general home page (including this 5-minute recap video from a gig, for your live impression).

Basic artist pitch: Plain Alex (Stockholm, Sweden) is the ordinary guy who keeps his large thoughts inside, mostly. His songs tend to be nordically mellow, yet catchy and powerful – with just a light touch of humour.

Welcome to pre-listen through the following links for your editorial purpose, not allowed to be published or otherwise redistributed!
– After work – A pretty dark but eventually powerfully rocky ode to rest … such as that long rest ahead.
– Beauty of the water – A hypnotically catchy interior from a dull office meeting where thoughts start whirling towards the universe outside.

A bonus bagatelle, humorously framing the figure, is being released in connection, too, though technically as a separate release:
– Hi, I am Alex
