Alec Gaston is one of the hottest artists in Bed-Stuy, Bushwick, and Ridgewood. Alec is a Queens, NY based multi-dimensional artist carving a name for themselves as a producer, songwriter, director, composer & multi-instrumentalist. Psychedelic soul is the vibe, love is the tribe. Alec identifies as transgender (pronouns she/her - they/them).
Alec’s debut LP “Evolve or Dissolve” pt.1 was released on May 18, 2023. Largely inspired by eclectic music, elements of seemingly disparate artists can be found throughout Gaston's catalogue. From 'Mac Demarco' to 'Mac Miller', sunshine to shoegaze, hip-hop to modern pyschedelia. Gaston’s 17-track debut LP “Inside The Outside, The Inbetween” was recorded in November of 2017 in a staggering seventy-two hours at Brewery Studio (BK) with engineer and co-producer Bryan DiMaio (engineer to Terrace Martin, Incubus, Mastadon, Paul McCartney, Kendrick Lamar & Kamasi Washington). The album was released in the fall of 2018 & Alec spent the remainder of the year on tour with artists Tor Miller & Kat Cunning. Gaston's Sophomore LP "You Really Blew My Mind", co-produced by Kevin Basko (RubberBandGun), was released May 18th, 2020. In addition to Alec’s solo project, they have also co-written, produced & mixed Kenna Wong’s Debut LP "Ghosts On The Beach", which was released in March of 2022. Alec also co-wrote and produced 3 projects for K.Sinclair - "ENIGMA" - which was released on July 15th, 2022, “It’s My Time” & most recently the LP “Nuclear Launch Detected”.
Alec is also actively involved in film-scoring and provided the music for Michael Rice’s award winning 2022 documentary Black as U R.
