Indie-folk artist, Greater Alexander, has seen all of that and more. He steadily walks that long road with a smile and a big heart. Love is his fuel and spreading it is his goal. Hailing from Southfield, Mich. (by way of New York and Athens, Greece), Greater Alexander is a tried and true singer/songwriter. Partaking in this rebirth of Michigan and its glorious folk music, his voice is instantly soothing as it floats across the finely plucked and gently strummed guitar that finds its home in his arms.

Greater Alexander nurtures his music from its birth on paper to the recording stage where he tracks his own vocal melodies over one another to create a full-fledged, lush sound. After having over 30 different jobs in his life, from barista to healthcare provider, Alexander knows that life has an equilibrium of good and bad. His music conveys that teeter-totter that everyone experiences.

Tracks like "Let it Be Me" captures that rollercoaster of emotions that love inevitably puts us on. While "Better Days" is a grateful promise that tomorrow will be filled with memories that will warm us in our silent times.

Greater Alexander's conquests include being named Detroit's Best Local Songwriter by Real Detroit Weekly. The praise does not stop there, indie music blog Middle Tennessee Music says "[the] exploration and discovery occur from the opening "Any Way Out Of It" to the closing "In The Stillness of Water". By the time the music stops, you feel as peaceful as a quiet pond tucked away in the rolling foothills." He has been the focus of the acclaimed Groove Box Studios video series. Nods to Moustaki's strength, Simon and Garfunkel's harmonization and Bon Iver's subtle falsetto are heard after first listen.
