After Party: Alec Shaw

Past Event

Indie-soul songwriter and producer Alec Shaw graces the BIMA stage for a First Friday After Party performance you don’t want to miss!

Alec Shaw is an ethereal soul songwriter and producer raised in the foothills of the Cascades in Washington State, garnering attention as an artist whose sound has developed into a soulful combination rooted in gospel and northwest folk. Vocally, he bridges a gap between Otis Redding and Jeff Buckley with a knack for engaging and ethereal arrangements.

Quantity, Alec’s fourth studio album, features Alec’s most creative and dramatic work yet. Released in 2022, Quantity along with a live video version of the single “Spinning” landed Alec a coveted in-studio taping with KEXP, as well as a national tour in the fall of 2022 with renowned Seattle indie-rock band Ivan & Alyosha. Quantity was co-produced with Andy Park (Mac Miller, Dave Mathews, Deep Sea Diver).

Alec’s upcoming LP takes a more nostalgic turn in its production and songwriting, using mid-century textures and recording techniques to underscore newly explored depths of longing, struggle, and hope.
