Alexandra Savior

Alexandra Savior exists between planes. Sonically, she floats between genres. Her voice—tender and textured—grabs hold of each note, carrying her words from place to place. Lyrically, her songs unfurl their rich narratives, sticking themselves to your brain like putty. Repeated listening rewards you with turns of phrase and well-trod storytelling, revealing Alexandra’s savvy perspective as a writer, rooting her songs in experiences so deeply personal that, upon refraction, could only become infinitely relatable. On Alexandra Savior’s new album, Beneath The Lilypad (RCA Records)—a collection crafted over the past five years—the singer, songwriter, and musician takes listeners on an ethereal journey. Woven together through 11 lushly orchestrated songs, the album follows the last half-decade of Alexandra’s life, a time during which her sense of self and artistic identity came into question, allowing for a creative freedom driven entirely by instinct and the desire to make music wholly for herself. Beneath The Lilypad does not tread a linear path—its arc does not follow an artist from difficult times to fully healed. “Because that’s not how life goes, and that’s certainly not been true of my journey,” she says with a laugh. “I wanted the tracking of this album to really reflect that: life is up and down. It wouldn’t have been true to who I am or where I am to have told this story any other way.”
