ABOUT TANIA
Tania Alexandra woke up one morning to see a piano taking up most of her bedroom. She was nine, and that piano became her diary.
Immersed in the performing arts and her father's eclectic tastes, she counts The Muppets, Igor Stravinsky, John Coltrane, Tom Waits, Laurie Anderson and Joni Mitchell among her earliest influences. Born and raised amid the beauty of the Colorado mountains, she honed her songwriting in secret while studying music education at Ithaca College, only revealing herself after moving to Philadelphia in 1998.
After recording her debut album "Chrysalis," Tania infused herself into the arts community as a singer-songwriter, music and movement teacher, session vocalist and vocal arranger. Her new release "Emergence" represents both a milestone in her songcraft and a culmination of her experiences as an artist in Philadelphia.
ABOUT THE MUSIC

Some haunting, some playful, some reflective, some bold - her music explores her journey into the connections and emotions in life through generations and over time between people, nature, and love.
