The Check-In with TŌTH

Alex Tōth is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Bedford-Stuyvesant, NYC. His newest album, And The Voice Said (out February 27th via Northern Spy/Egg Hunt Records) is a co-production with long-time friend Caroline Rose and features a duet with Kimbra.  Alex tells us about his rowdy teen years led to a teen jazz program and why the trumpet gave him an identity amongst the Jersey hardcore scene.  He explains the voice(s) that inspired the record title, how Caroline Rose helped him grow as a vocalist and the two discuss the role of negativity in Alex’s songwriting.   Alex tells us how video for Not Broken was shot on a busy Coney Island boardwalk, why it’s so moving for him and how he wrangled live animal cameos.
