Alejandra Cruz grew up by the beach, but you won’t mistake her songs for breezy summertime fare.
She writes from the point of view of outcasts and misfits, bringing a new perspective and incisive wit to her tales of relationships gone wrong. With a smoky voice trained on jazz classics and a stacked backing band, she combines a vintage sound with modern material to thrilling effect.
“We don’t know what we’re doing but we know we’re doing it wrong.”
“Soleado”
Upcoming Shows
New Album Out Now
Over ten songs, Cruz’s new album charts a year in the life of a cast of characters who step in and out of the shadows. Featuring lush production and a full string section, it’s her most accomplished album to date.
