Alex Falcone was born in July 1966 in Trieste, Italy, and taught himself keyboards at the young age of 14. He has a passion for hard and classic rock and lists bands such as Deep Purple, Rainbow, Uriah Heep and Whitesnake amongst his favourites.
In 1987 after several collaborations with local musicians, Alex started to play with W.I.N.D. and, in 1990, he played with Heaven's Touch. These bands helped Alex to engage larger and more enthusiastic audiences. The demos Legs Attraction and Just...Ice have been listened to and appreciated by the press and fans all over the world!
His discography includes albums with Stargazer and Wasteland. In 2003, Alex played a live concert with John Lawton (Uriah Heep). So influenced, Alex created AphasiA, an American oriented project. He continued playing live with his passionate band, a tribute to Uriah Heep: Sweet Lorraine.
Currently, Alex is working on AphasiA II and the pure hard rock project, The Hard Side Of My Soul supported mainly with Hammond organ, vintage Moog synthesizers, Fender Stratocaster and the collaboration of several international musicians.
The Heaven's Touch CD The Best 1988 - 1995 has been released in spring 2009. Alex is also working on the creation of the band for performing AphasiA live and preparing an acoustic version of the song Sail Away for his newest music video.
In November 2009 Alex Falcone supported by Sweet Lorraine will be the opening act for House of Lords on some of their Italian dates.
