Born among the wide skies of Iowa, Alex Bergan began writing songs at fifteen—drawn early to the honest work of turning feeling into sound. Like many true songwriters, his path wasn’t linear; it was shaped by detours, doubt, and devotion to finding a voice that felt unguarded and real. When that voice finally settled in, it carried him onto stages alongside artists such as <a href="spotify:artist:4qKpLkR911SUlnd4HAtF79" data-name="Nathaniel Rateliff">Nathaniel Rateliff</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:72Pauuctba5lMzC89R0Vk0" data-name="Vintage Trouble">Vintage Trouble</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:5Q2ZtOZ0vOdtcjGDOq6ZQc" data-name="Ryan Montbleau">Ryan Montbleau</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:7czrHF19KySaSs3dnBnPCR" data-name="John Butler">John Butler</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:1CUUaD4QTSHjEfrLohLaW6" data-name="Riley Downing">Riley Downing</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:3Y3xIwWyq5wnNHPp5gPjOW" data-name="Kenny Loggins">Kenny Loggins</a>—proof that sincerity still travels far.
Now based in San Diego, after a decade of service in the United States Navy, Alex has become a defining presence in the city’s folk and Americana landscape. His work balances tenderness and grit, marked by lived-in storytelling and a voice that feels both weathered and intimate. In 2023, he earned a San Diego Music Award nomination for Best Folk/Acoustic Album for his EP My Notebook. The following year brought a win for his single Unpromised Land, and in 2025 he received his second SDMA for Ghost in the Addict. That same year, San Diego Magazine named him Male Vocalist of the Year.
At its core, Alex Bergan’s music is an act of listening—to the past, to the quiet moments, to the truths most people struggle to say out loud. His songs don’t chase spectacle; they stay. They linger. And they ask the listener to do the same.
