Jade Alger began his journey in music at the age of 5 playing cello. At university he made a name for himself through song-writing and became known for his unorthodox lyricism and lilting melodies.

His official debut album, Unfolding the Muse, was released in 2016 to include 16 emotionally-driven tracks. Ethereal vocals mingle with arpeggio classical guitar textures as seesaw melodies float above strings and minimalist percussion. Lyrics take center stage throughout the record, as Alger takes us on a journey to recognize the dynamic interplay of beauty and darkness.

He is currently working on an experimental album titled Kinora that will expand into more collaboration and broader instrumentation. This diverse collection will incorporate cello into a mixture of classical guitar and folk melodies with some tracks shifting the focal point away from the lyrics, toward neo-classical composition.

Alger's songs paint a picture as he creates a certain musical labyrinth and attempts to lure the listener in. Placing high importance on the listener's own interpretation of each song, he rarely publishes the intended meanings of songs.
