Alexander Wolfe Searches For True Honesty With 'Avalanche'

Alexander Wolfe
"It's about trying to start afresh..."

Alexander Wolfe wants to get to the crux of the matter.

The songwriter digs deeper than most, tapping into emotions many would rather keep hidden.

New album 'Little Death' arrives on March 22nd, and it's his broadest, bravest effort yet.

We're able to share new song 'Avalanche', a stark, bruised offering that approaches the topic of "trying to start afresh..."

The songwriter explains: “I initially wrote the bones of 'Avalanche' with my friend Starling in a little studio in Hackney a couple of years ago. The instrumental was knocking around for a while and I loved how raw it was and I wanted to match that with really self-effacing, honest lyrics.”

“It was written as a stream of consciousness when I was feeling out of control, It's about trying to start afresh, it's like confronting yourself and saying, you're not doing good things, you're not being kind to yourself.  There's some stuff about self-medication and mortality on there.”

Tune in now.

Catch Alexander Wolfe at London's St Pancras Old Church on January 30th.

#GucciShowtime Campaign season is in full swing, and Gucci are throwing it way back with a grandiose celebration of old Hollywood and the roots of celebrity culture. Director Glen Luchford is taking notes from the golden age of cinema, referencing the most iconic films of all time, including: An American in Paris, Cover Girl, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and Singin’ in the Rain, Gucci treats us to uniform tap dancers, floor length ball gowns, fur (faux, of course) and headpieces befitting only the original silver screen sirens. Accompanying the lavish campaign images, are black and white styled headshots and a short film playing homage to the era featuring an army of models dipped in Gucci singing and dancing to Irving Berlin’s “There’s No Business Like Show Business”, proving that the only way to up the glam of the ‘40s is with Gucci, Gucci, Gucci.
