Multi-talented singer-songwriter Alex Warren has released an acoustic version of his label debut single, “Headlights”. The acoustic track arrives alongside an intimate, stripped down video, which can be seen now below.
“The acoustic version of Headlights is extremely cool because the song originally started as a stripped-down ballad so it’s almost nostalgic because it’s like I’m in a time machine looking back at when we first wrote the record,” shared Alex.
The magnetic, deeply moving track first garnered 74M views on TikTok prior to release and has since earned over 4M streams worldwide. Watch the song’s official music video, which is based on Alex’s true life story HERE.
Known for his vulnerable pop melodies, passionate vocals, and lyrical candor, Alex shared the news of his signing with Atlantic Records in August via an exclusive Billboard announcement. Shortly after the announcement, Warren shared the first episode of his self-produced docuseries, “I Hope You’re Proud.” The 9-minute episode follows Alex on his journey into music and how he attributes his success to his late father who passed away when he was 9 years old. From being homeless and sleeping in his friends’ cars with nothing but a camera and a laptop to landing a record deal, Alex’s evolution is anything but ordinary, and his late father has always been a driving presence in his life.
At just 22-years-old, the charismatic musician, digital creator and entrepreneur is one of the most followed Gen Z celebrities on YouTube, Instagram and TikTok. Alex has shared his life with the internet for 11+ years, building an online community of 20M+ cumulative followers.
