STREAM/SHARE 'Dream Final' HERE

Vancouver singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Alex Maher is pleased to announce the release of his new single 'Dream Final', the first single and title track from his new Dream Final EP which is set for release on February 21st, 2020.

Dream Final is Alex Maher's third solo EP and he tackles some weighty subject matter on it, like global issues from climate change and social alienation in the digital age. On his first single ‘Dream Final', Alex focuses on the many problems that modern society is currently facing.

"‘Dream Final' is about the struggle getting really real," says Alex. "In this era of climate crisis, increased nationalism, and social alienation, it’s about reimagining your best case scenario to find hope. Faced with all of these signs pointing towards the end times, it can feel like all the hustle, all the career dreams are just a product of the greed that’s simultaneously destroying our planet and the ways we relate to each other. This song is about taking a step back from the drive for more, to take clear stock of what we have. It’s about shifting focus and letting go of what you thought your end goal was, and being open to a different, but similarly rewarding path."

Alex Maher got his start in jazz. After playing in a couple of different West Coast bands (Flannel Jimmy, DNA6), Alex began experimenting with the Line 6 loop pedal in his solo work. He loops his live performances on percussion, SPDS drum pad, electric guitar, alto sax and vocals to create songs one element at a time. With his foundation in jazz, Alex's music draws on funk, soul, hip hop, urban and pop inspirations in an unforgettable one-man band performance.

His critically acclaimed 2017 EP, Aether, marked the end of a struggle with addiction stemming from mental illness after the loss of a dear friend. On his new Dream Final EP, Alex expands from Aether's introspection with contagious up-tempo beats, and funky pop grooves, giving the listener something to think and dance about. Featuring crisp production by Juno award winning producer Ryan Stewart, Dream Final is an up-tempo meditation on the state of the world.

Alex Maher's new single ’Dream Final' is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services. For more information, please visit: alexmahermusic.com
