How to Grow a Sunfower Underwater is the follow-up to Alex The Astronaut's ARIA Music Award-nominated debut, The Theory Of Absolutely Nothing

An unforgettably original lyricist, the music of Australian singer/songwriter Alex the Astronaut cycles through a series of radiantly detailed slices of life. Alex documents moments of both the seemingly mundane from a haircut, a therapy session, a trip to the beach and to the supermarket to then utterly life-changing experiences as a care giver along with the PTSD that followed and her recent diagnosis with autism.

The 26- year- old artist imbues her songs with equal parts self- awareness and sensitivity, imagination and idiosyncratic humor and in its intimate exploration of post- traumatic growth, the result is a body of work afrming Alex as a truly essential songwriter, capable of transforming the way we view ourselves and the world around us..
