Belly up to the bar top. Get a cheap shot. What a day…
Only this wall full of alcohol can keep my regrets at bay
But here walks in a new one, yet it seems so familiar to me
Now look who saunters over. It’s my favorite memory

I thought I had lost you, but you’d been standing in the wings
I thought I outgrew all the excitement of a fling

My mind’s now a-buzzin' with alcohol and regret
For paths I’ve forsaken, what you’ll never forget
And I’ve been such a pretender, halfway playing a part
Drinking, stuck in a daydream. It was over before it could start

I wish we could go back; stretch a new canvas on the frame
I can’t seem to move past this suit and tie that I became

Come sit down beside me. Let's try to get something on the page
Quiet my critic. It’s only me standing in your way

Gonna Be Okay

What's in the Way

Alex Summerlin is an eclectic alternative and folk-rock musician who has played music professionally for over a decade around the Little Rock, AR, and Nashville, TN areas. Originally hailing from Bryant, AR, Alex was drawn to music at a young age by the generations of working musicians in his family.  He started playing cover music in local bars and clubs as young as 12 years old, playing music steadily throughout his teens and twenties.

Alex started writing music in college as a passion project to break out of the limitations he felt playing cover songs. There, he met fellow long-time musicians and collaborators Rick Scott and Chad Terrell, and they joined Alex to write and produce songs from their home studio in Maumelle, AR (WaterWoods Studio). 

Since then, Alex, Chad, and Rick have continued writing and producing songs that reflect influences from several genres and three generations of music they wish to share with anyone who will listen.
