Alexander Stewart Unveils New Single ‘broken by you’
Canadian breakout pop singer and songwriter Alexander Stewart shares his brand new single broken by you, the first release from his forthcoming album due out later this year.
Co-written by Alexander with The Nocturns, Corey Sanders and Nolan Sipe, broken by you is a brazen, cinematic song that marks the beginning of a new chapter for Alexander as he learns to navigate an inevitable heartbreak. I am loving how passionate and expressive his vocal delivery is, instantly making us feel each and every single word he is singing. Apart from his stunning vocals and heartfelt storytelling, I am particularly fond of the infectious pop melodies that pairs intricate acoustic guitar riffs with cool rhythms, steady drum patterns and a memorable hook that makes this a great song for the radios and to sing along to.
Directed by Nick and Pat Demarais, the 'broken by you' music video follows Alexander through a dream-like sequence surrounded by an array of mirrors. Throughout the video, the mirrors become symbolic of Alexander's introspection and self'discovery, and ultimately allow Alexander a moment to unleash his hurt and heartbreak. Check it out below!
Speaking about the song, Alexander said,
'broken by you' was written in the depths of me trying to find a silver lining in a heartbreak that I knew was already coming. Sometimes you reach a point in a relationship when you've done all that you can to fight for the other person, and realising that can feel just as freeing as it does heartbreaking. I can't wait to play this song live, along with the many more that are to come. This is just the beginning!
