Alex Spencer, an indie artist from Manchester is establishing himself as one of the UK’s most exciting new voices.

Known for sharp songwriting, raw honesty and electric live energy, he first gained attention busking on the streets before earning support from BBC Radio 1, 6 Music, BBC Introducing, Radio X and then a global audience when his single ‘Nightmares’ featured on the EA SPORTS FC25 game soundtrack, and Alex supported One Direction star Louis Tomlinson across European arenas in early 2026.

Following 2025’s EP ‘Where Do We Go From Here?’ he released music including ‘Masks and Farewell to Forever'. His 2026 headline tour sold out, including a joyous show at Manchester Academy 2, continuing a rapid ascent that has seen him pack venues across the country.
