Music has been part of Alex’s life even before he was born so it is pretty natural that he describes himself first as a singer. His mother is a guitar teacher and taught him how to play when he was 10.

Along his longtime friends Sam Farrar, Jacques Brauthar, Darren Robinson, and ex-band member Jason Schwartzman he formed Phantom Planet in 1994. Their first album Phantom Planet id Missing was released in 1998, followed by the Guest in 2002, Phantom Planet in 2004c and Raise the Dead in 2008. Alex and Phantom Planet’s last performance was in December 2008.
