Alphanaut

Alphanaut is an electro-acoustic project fronted by singer/songwriter Mark Alan.

Alan, who has been writing and recording music since high school, played in several bands in Seattle before moving to Los Angeles in his early 20’s. He launched his professional career writing and performing in the early 90s with a group of musicians he gathered to form the band November. Fronting the five piece project for over six years, Alan spearheaded a style that mixed lush guitar melodies with ambient keyboards—not exactly an easy nut to crack in the “garage rock” era. After the band split, he began focusing on other creative interests with an eye towards one day returning to writing and recording music from a fresh perspective. Many of the musical sketches he wrote over the years formed the foundation for Alphanaut, whose futuristic name came from a cult 70s British sci fi show called Space: 1999.
