Alex Winters Releases New Single "Hearts On Fire"

Georgetown’s favorite pop rocker Alex Winters premiered her new single “Hearts On Fire” on November 22.

Per Alex, “Hearts On Fire” speaks to the sensual side of who she is. Inspired by an erotic poem, she decided to use the imagery in that poem and write her own story into it.

Stitched Sound premiered the song stating, “‘Hearts on Fire’ is a vibrant piece with a flame underneath as it drives her epic brand of music.” Stage Right Secrets also posted the premiere on their site. Broken 8 Records then premiered the lyric video, which was created by JD Vazques using the album art that was designed by A.G.Ink.

You can stream the song on Spotify and Apple Music, as well as purchase the tune on her website!

Alex Winters Premieres "Silent Storm" Single With Lyric Video

Austin pop-rock singer/songwriter Alex Winters premiered her new single “Silent Storm” today with a beautiful lyric video!

"Silent Storm" is about someone you love who comes into your life like a hurricane, then disappears while you deal with the emotional devastation. The cycle repeats until you can't take it anymore and you have to let them go, dreading the conversation you'll eventually have to have explaining why. In the end, despite the difficult situation, the protagonist is empowered. It's part of what makes her who she is, which is a strong, confident woman who's not going to let that person drag her down anymore.

You can stream the song on Spotify and Apple Music, as well as purchase the tune on her website!

Loud Women selected “Silent Storm” as their Track of the Day on September 9th!

Pre-Save Alex Winters New Single "Silent Storm" on Spotify

Austin pop-rock singer/songwriter Alex Winters just announced new music releasing Friday, August 23rd! “Silent Storm” is the first single of many that Alex is releasing in 2019 and 2020 for her upcoming album “Beauty and Blemishes.”

You can pre-save the tune on Spotify and be the first to stream the song! Alex also created a beautiful lyric video for it and if you follow her on Instagram and/or Facebook, you can catch a glimpse of it as she’s posting a line each day until the premiere.

Alex recently updated her website to reflect the new “Beauty and Blemishes” branding, which includes all new photos taken by RSX Digital Studios. I really love the new imagery that shows off Alex’s sexy look and style. In addition, the single cover art was done by A.G Ink which perfectly reflects the feelings the song portrays. I’m really excited for everyone to hear the new music!

Meet Texas Based Singer Songwriter Alex Winters

While at SXSW, I had the pleasure of meeting the lovely and talented Alex Winters in person after having communicated with her over some time in Music Launch Co. Not only did Alex and I bond instantly, but I fell in love with her songs for wayward souls about the good and ugly life experiences. Alex bares her deepest feelings in her music and it’s refreshing to see an artist so comfortable in their own skin, who’s goal is to let others know they are not alone in their pain.

I highly encourage you to check Alex Winters out on Spotify and YouTube, and if you end up loving her music as much as I do, please support her via her Patreon page. Alex is about to release her new single “Silent Storm,” which I promise you is worth the wait! I’m hoping to work with this wonderful artist, so keep your fingers crossed for me!
