Alex's Responses
1) I am extremely grateful! This has really been a dream come true for me to be able to make music my career. I'm very thankful for all the support I've been getting so early on in my career and I can't wait for my supporters to hear what I have coming next!
2) Justin Timberlake. He is my biggest musical inspiration and would love to meet him let alone perform with him!
3)I've been singing since I was 8
4) I performed at the TEEN READ AWARDS a couple months ago in Toronto and I had an amazing time. I got to meet some amazing people and some new artists.
5) It's really a dream come true. It's feels amazing and is a big accomplishment as a songwriter. It finally feels like all the hard work is starting to pay off! :D
6) I think it's pretty unique. It's a mix of a lot of different styles. I use a lot of throw-back boy band harmonies and melodies but use current trendy dance club tracks!
7) I was listening to NSYNC and a lot of POP music
8) SO INTO YOU. It is the first song I've ever written and is the song that caught the record companies' attention. It really means a lot to me. I wrote it with my good buddy Keegan Dillabaugh.
9) It's really teaching me how as people, we're all the same. It's amazing to see how music affects people from all across the world. Music doesn't discriminate and I think that's great.
10) Thank you so much for your support and I can't for you to hear what's coming out next. I've been working with an incredible team on the upcoming CD and it's going to be something you've never heard before! The next single will be release early 2011.

Updates?

Hey Everyone! I have some surprises for you! Well only one, it has to do with the lack of updates. So here is goes, lately I've been thinking that it will be a while before the vast majority of bands come to Canada, so why don't we interview them through email?

So stick around for upcoming interviews from 14 Car Pile Up, Alex Lacasse, A Day Overdue, Downhill, Decodes and Forever is Over! We will also be interviewing the bands, The Latency and These Kids Wear Crowns when they are in the area next!

I'd love to thank all of you guys for so much support on our facebook, it means a lot to us! Even if Lyssa and Yasmin don't update, doesn't mean the don't appreciate what you guys are helping us with, they are just extremly busy. I am as well actually, but i still make time for BandsGoBig!

Love Bekah <3
