In such complex and dark times, it’s important for art not to lose sight of hope and resilience. Alexander Joseph does exactly that, sharing a positive message through his signature acoustic folk style, built on feathery guitars and light textures. The result is material that’s soothing, mellow and very welcoming, embracing the listener in a fictional blissful universe made up of empowering lyricism and social righteousness.
‘Stop and Breathe’ is Alexander’s latest effort, a four-track EP showcasing everything the project stands for. Giving a platform to crucial themes such as climate change, self-growth and radical authenticity, Joseph seeks to inspire his audience, helping them navigate the modern landscape and offering a chance to help. He does so through his evocative, passionate vocals, delivered with intense charisma and gentle energy.
The British singer-songwriter is a true jewel in an industry that lost its soul a long time ago. ‘Stop and Breathe’ will convince you of that, while evoking a moment of introspection and escapism, drenched in positivity and longing for a better future. What’s more, Joseph explains: “I’ve partnered up with ‘One Tree Planted’ for the release and will be donating 50% of proceeds from streams and downloads to help support their vital global reforestation work.”
