Alex Kehm is a 22-year-old queer and transgender artist from Rhode Island who defines the modern bedroom producer. From early SoundCloud releases in 2017 to their current self-produced projects, Kehm has maintained a strictly independent process—writing, recording, and producing their entire discography from home.

At the core of Kehm’s work is a poetic approach to songwriting that serves as both a sanctuary and a mirror. Describing their process as "ripping out a piece of a journal and sharing it with the void," Kehm explores the complexities of trauma, grief and queer identity with a raw, "old soul" perspective. Their lyrics often navigate the nuances of martyrdom and the fear of intimacy, prioritizing emotional integrity over commercial polish.

This vulnerability has anchored major industry milestones. After their first single "Jean Jacket" was featured on Clairo’s NTS Radio Show, Kehm’s reach expanded with the 2022 EP 'Intimacy.' The title track has since surpassed 15 million streams and secured numerous sync placements in TV and film through Epidemic Sound.

In 2025, Kehm released the self-produced EP 'cowboy’s gonna do it.' The lead single "hypotheticals" earned a spot on Spotify’s New Music Friday and was discovered by Joe Jonas. Influenced by Bon Iver and Joni Mitchell, Kehm’s indie-folk-pop sound draws comparisons to Phoebe Bridgers and Billie Eilish.
