About Me

"With a voice that floats with gossamer frailty one moment and soars to a sweeping fervor the next, Alexandra coaxes a sweet purity out of simple momentswatching a butterfly, taking a breathand draws truth from places still painfully tender, peeling back the layers of her own assumptions and beliefs with a steely determination."
- Naila Francis, The Intelligencer, Doylestown, PA ............................................................ ............................................................ .................. - Propelled to spread creative energy like a colorful weed, Tania Alexandra muses her listeners. Her passionate voice weaves through piano driven primal grooves creating a collage filled with poetic lyrics and engaging melodies. Tania's songs are edgy, evocative, and subtly complex. Some haunting, some playful, some reflective, some bold - her music explores her journey into the connections and emotions in life through generations and over time between people, nature, and love.
