Alex and Sierra

This duet not only proves that shows like X Factor do help some people to succeed in music industry, but also is inspiring in terms of dealing with all the fame and scrutiny involved. They’re just amazing, so down to earth, so talented and so in love with each other. The chemistry between them is out of this world. And people fell in love with that. I did too.

Their casting is an evidence, as well as them winning the third season of The X Factor USA in 2013.

Interesting fact: It is said that John Legend and Harry Styles co-wrote a song for their album, it was supposed to be called “I wasn’t ready”. Alex and Sierra claimed that song to be their favorite, but for some mysterious reason it hadn’t been chosen.

Not long after winning the show, their announced that they’ll be making an album. Alex and Sierra wrote most of their songs, which was a new experience for them, as they’ve never done that before. However they’ve  got help from many composers and  lyric writers like: Julian Bunetta, Sam Watters, Jason Mraz and Toby Gad.

In october 2014 their released their debut studio album “It’s about us”. It consists of quite catchy and melodious folk-pop songs, just the way I like it.

Not too long ago, they’ve also announced that they are in the works of releasing an extended play of the songs they covered in the X Factor. Now, these kind of news I’d like to hear more. Cheers.
