About Me


Throughout the ages, it has been widely rehearsed that when writing music, simplicity captures attention. Listeners look for the calrity in their entertainment, something that they can attach themselves to, simplicity is a musicians best friend. So when it comes to Alaska & Me’s new EP, Actors, the drive to become simple seems almost effortless. No frills, or extensive post-production work just the music, and that is what has captured my attention.
This unique blend of musicianship really gives their listeners a break from the more complex, compound music that flourishes within the Arizona music scene. Some singles that resonate from the album are “In Your Shoes,” a song, form the outside looking in, sings about the end of indifferent relationship with two people seeking two different paths in life. “Hard Month and a Harder Choice,” takes the reflective look at a missed relationship as well.
Actors EP is a great starting point for a band that is slowly up and coming in the Arizona scene. Through the simplicity of Alaska & Me’s arrangements, listening is easy, and with careful preparation this band could immerse from Show Low and the greater Phoenix area, with a great following.
If you have any questions for the band, or you just want to say hi, send us a message or leave a comment. We try to answer to everything, so we’ll get back to you as soon as we can! Much Love, AAM
