my music taste is everywhere so here's this

Boston Based Singer / Songwriter / Producer / DJ
Booking: alexanderpadei@alexanderpadei.com

Hey Fam, 
I'm Alexander Padei ("PAH-day"). Music is life for me. As a teenager, I pushed hard to succeed academically, so hard that I got into Harvard. There was talk of an investment banking career, computer engineering, maybe a law degree. But I learned the hard way that none of these were my calling when my grades slipped and Harvard asked me to take a year off and figure out my shit.
So fast forward past all the obligatory excuse-making, etc., and I've reconnected with something that's been with me since I was a small kid: The Music. I start DJing. I suck at first, but I get better. I go into debt on some speakers and start doing paid gigs. I start a promotional company in Boston, I pour all that money into learning how to produce, rap, song-write, sing, market, speak, network, and more over the next five years. Along the way, I start working in spaces that feed my love of entrepreneurship and TEDx HarvardCollege makes me their Marketing Director. I begin to surround myself with amazing like-minded new friends. I start a podcast, I start an interview series and bring in major acts like Laidback Luke, I start making music for other artists and then for startups. 
Yeah, it's a bit of a whirlwind. But after all this, I've connected with my calling. I'm a multi-varied recording artist, producer and DJ, a creative problem solver, a marketer, a public speaker and a thought leader. I want to become the best artist of my generation. I also want to teach others along the way about building their own creativity and help democratize the music industry. All of my music is self produced, self-written and done on a low budget. I want people to see that they don't need to ask permission or wait for massive resources to come to them to get started. Finding your calling is too important to wait.
