Edit history

Best known for being the bass player & backing vocalist of the melodic metal band VOYAGER, Perth based musician Alex Canion takes the helm to navigate through the murky waters of alt/heavy rock with his debut solo release, Birthmark. Alex has played hundreds of gigs domestically and internationally since 2004, with his focus fixed solely on the bass guitar. With Voyager he's performed extensively throughout Europe, UK, Ireland, Japan, North America & Mexico. Birthmark is Alex’s first foray into the world of solo artists and features not only bass parts composed and performed by Alex, but also sees him take on drums, guitar and lead vocal duties as well, resulting in an emotive and personal journey. The title of the EP was inspired by the birthmarks on Alex’s left side of his face, symbolising his first solo effort in the music world and celebrating that which makes us all unique in our own way.
