Alex Noelle is a singer/songwriter and an emotional storyteller. Throughout her childhood, many experiences with loss, love, and mental health challenges led her to rely on music for healing and she dedicated her time to training, performing, and songwriting. This later became her inspiration to become a music therapist in Philadelphia. In 2018, Noelle officially relocated to Nashville to pursue a full-time artist career. Noelle hopes that her upcoming series of single releases can offer connection and catharsis for all of the life stuff that is hardest to sit with alone.
What are your fondest musical memories from growing up in New Jersey?
My fondest memories all come back to the music I had at home. It was how my family liked to connect. I woke up hearing Santana and Norah Jones playing in the kitchen, and I fell asleep listening to Todd Rundgren and Foreigner (yes, Foreigner.) We listened to everything and we played everything. All of this early exposure to music did lead to a ton of ensembles, lessons, and shows, but the familiarity to all kinds of music at home is what I loved the most.
