Synopsis

Album Description

How in the world did so much voice, so much talent, so much energy, and sensuality fit into one tiny albeit beautiful body? Answer. Cindy Alexander. Nominated for Best Female Artist and winner of "Outstanding Songwriter" by the Los Angeles Music Awards, Cindy writes songs that people sing along with, and lyrics that they quote to their friends. Cindy's critically acclaimed debut CD "See Red," nominated for L.A. Music Awards 1999 Indie Pop Album of the Year, has 11 tracks - an organic blend of folk, pop and rock with both electric and acoustic elements. "See Red" was produced by Dave Darling (Boxing Gandhis/ Meredith Brooks/ Brian Setzer). She gets compared to Sheryl Crow, Shawn Colvin, Alanis, and Tori Amos, but Cindy is still uniquely Cindy-esque. Her quirky lyrics, multi-faceted mega voice and amazing charisma have made her one of the most popular acts in Los Angeles.

CD Reviews

My Favorite Gift

Elijah | NYC | 12/07/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"My girlfriend recently gave me this CD for my birthday. The card read: "Sometimes I have feelings that I can't put into words, and sometimes I wish you knew the depth of those feelings I can't seem to express. Maybe you'll find the words that escape me in this CD." Cindy Alexander is a modern poet and someone I wish I knew so that we could just hang out, cuz she has a great sense of humor. She saves me from boredom on my long commute to work, and yes, she has probably also saved my relationship. Time Falling Down and I See Stars are slam dunk ballads, and Sick of Myself is my new theme song. This is a CD that is good from beginning to end. I don't feel the need to press "skip," however, I do hit the replay button for my favorites. If you like Shawn Colvin (her "Steady On" cd is in 2nd place to Cindy's "See Red"), you'll love Cindy Alexander. "See Red" was produced by David Darling, who also produced Meredith Brooks. There is some similarity between these two artists (cool loops,feisty guitars), but Cindy's voice shines above."

Addicting like Chocolate

"So I'm the type of gal that's been called obsessive/compulsive - I eat too much chocolate and I can't get Cindy Alexander's CD out of my CD changer. Her songs run through my head daily and I'm known to quote her lyrics to my shrink. But my problems aside, any sane (or insane) person will love her music. I discovered Cindy on tour with the Bacon Brothers and after hearing "Better than I Am," I HAD to buy "See Red." Her melodies are catchy, the grooves are booty shaking, the ballads bring tears to my eyes, and her voice is gorgeous. No two songs on this CD are alike - and to listen from beginning to end is a trip in itself. It's hard to believe that the same girl who sings "I See Stars" so sweetly can belt it out like a siren in "I'm OK." I can't wait for her next musical ride."

First Rate Songwriting and a Voice for all ages

"Wow. I just took an emotional roller coaster ride... in other words, I listened to "See Red" and laughed, cried and walked out of my house singing Cindy songs and wanting to be, in her words, "better than I am." A little bit Sheryl, a little bit Tori, but really very unique. Her voice is at once beautiful and brimming with personality, as multi-faceted as are the tunes on this record. Thanks for the recommendation Amazon. This CD is a keeper."
