I Alexander is a pop/alternative artist from Hull. Recent material has a mature and emotive sound to it, with catchy riffs and powerful chord sequences.
Influences range from heavy rock bands such as Taking Back Sunday, Chiodos, Saosin and Green Day to mainstream pop such as Justin Timberlake or Michael Jackson.
With recent radio play on ManyMoreRadio.com and an unsigned station over in the USA, a consistent live show schedule and an inventive and dynamic approach to songwriting, I Alexander is one of the UK's most promising upcoming songwriter/performers.
"He performed his own material, some of it rather spunky and fast, with the occasional ballad thrown in there, including the well received Halo’s And Hypocrites, and not forgetting his Hull Vibe topper, Kittens and Charmers.
A cover of Johnny Cash’s Ring Of Fire was performed, which provoked an electric response from the crowd.
He seemed to occupy the stage excellently, as if a whole band was up there, taking care to interact with the audience and keep the whole thing intimate.
Larkman is clearly a fine example of the fresh talent on Hull’s music scene, so keep an eye out for his name in bigger places in the near future." - Danielle Partis, HullyBugle
"I Alexander creates a sense of wonderment within the audience, some thinking about the lyrics, others just sitting back and are amazed by the talent onstage" "When I saw him play acoustically at Adelphi Club (Hull) I felt really involved, it was a really cool experience" "When Alex plays you know he has something important to say and he performs in a way that makes people want to listen. He is both professional and entertaining when he plays." "Alex Larkman brings his energy filled recorded tracks to life, with epic technical guitar riffs that fill up a room, to impressively clean high vocals that send a shiver down your spine. He brings a little bit of everything with him, and puts on a great show" "An able musician and promising songwriter with a great future ahead of him" - Tom Robinson, BBC Radio 6
