Songs that I uploaded to a different Soundcloud a long time ago.

Last Lullabye

Atlas

This is a track that I wrote two years ago and recorded last summer.

Human Conditioning (Cross My Heart) - Long Time Listener

"20 Years" by the Civil Wars is the first of five recordings made by Alex McIntosh (AKA Long Time Listener) and Margaret Siegrist during the final week of their college career.

20 Years [The Civil Wars Cover]

The second of five recording made in collaboration with Margaret Siegrist during our final week together.  "I've Got This Friend" is from The Civil War's first full length studio album album "Barton Hollow."

I've Got This Friend [The Civil Wars Cover]

Probably my favorite song of the set recorded with Margaret Siegrist, this is a cover of the high energy The Civil Wars song "I Had Me A Girl."  It is the third of six recorded during the week of finals spring semester of our senior year.

I Had Me A Girl [The Civil Wars Cover]

The final cover from the Finals Week Demo, Barton Hollow is probably the most famous of The Civil Wars' songs.

Barton Hollow [The Civil Wars Cover]

The first track available written and performed by Long Time Listener, "Blind" reminisces on the the futility of communication when one has pulled themselves away emotionally.  Words and music written and performed by Long Time Listener, harmony composed and performed by Margaret Siegrist.

Blind - Long Time Listener

2003 is the final song from the Finals Week Demo, a collaborative project between Long Time Listener and Margaret Siegrist.  

Driven by energetic acoustic guitar, 2003 warns that the passage of time rarely grants clarity, and that running away doesn't always mean running to something else.

"I don't know where we're going, but I know it's not coming free."

Alex McIntosh, also known as Long Time Listener, is a singer/songwriter hailing from small town western Minnesota. Accompanied by an acoustic guitar, a ukulele, a piano, or even at times a mandolin, McIntosh writes folk-rock style songs that straddle the intersection of passionate and poignant.  His sound has been compared to that of Iron and Wine and the Avett Brothers. 

McIntosh is in the process of assembling a demo CD with the help of Media Services at the College of Saint Benedict in Saint Joseph, MN, and with his own entry level equipment.  He intends to release music at consistent intervals over the coming summer through Soundcloud and YouTube, followed by performances in the Saint Cloud and Twin Cities areas to reach a wider audience.  In late April he opened for Tyler Ward and Nico and Vinz at 15 Pines, a music festival hosted at Saint John’s University in Collegeville, MN.
