Michael Alexander, the cape-wearing Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter, is back with his latest single, “Trouble In the Universe.” Known for his eclectic musical style that ranges from dance-infused R&B tracks to deeply emotional acoustic ballads, Michael continues to push creative boundaries. His new release is no exception, offering a mix of dark and haunting verses contrasted by euphoric, uplifting choruses.
Interestingly, “Trouble In the Universe” has been a long time coming. Michael wrote the song over a decade ago, inspired by what he calls a period of delusion where he thought he was channeling Stevie Nicks. While that phase may have passed, the song stayed with him. It’s a deeply personal piece that reflects his journey as a young artist stepping into the often chaotic and unpredictable music industry. The verses, shrouded in a mysterious, almost brooding tone, tell the story of an artist finding his way, while the choruses break free, offering a moment of pure, soaring optimism.
The production of the track took place at Killingsworth Recording Company, and it marks the third release from his upcoming studio album. Fans have eagerly awaited this moment, and the excitement is palpable as Michael has dropped his newest album on September 6th. For those wanting a physical memento, CDs and vinyl are available through his website.
Adding to the excitement, Michael planned out a sold-out album release concert on September 7th in Los Angeles, where he undoubtedly showcased the full range of his musical talents. Known for his electrifying live performances, where he not only entertains but also connects deeply with his audience, this concert must have been an unforgettable experience.
“Trouble In the Universe” serves as a powerful reminder of the artistic journey—how songs can sit in the shadows for years, waiting for the perfect moment to be unveiled. For Michael Alexander, that moment is now, and it’s clear that his universe is about to get a whole lot brighter.
