The perfect lo-fi soundtrack to carefree, smitten teen years

A Liveurope concert:
The first pan-European initiative supporting concert venues in their efforts to promote emerging European music.

The hipster-candy-of-the-month hails from Grayshott, somewhere in the countryside between London & Brighton. Lo-fi songwriting tempered with a whiff of jazz, indie-rock and soul, inspired by heartwarming puppy love. His second release ‘Apricot Princess’ (out since April ’17) is bursting with ideas and the only recently 19-year-old Alex O’Conner behind Rex Orange County integrates them all to form one brilliant whole. He can also be found as a guest on ‘Foreword’, the opening track on Tyler, The Creator’s genius album ‘Flower Boy’.

In the press

“Rex Orange County is the vibrant and vulnerable songwriter his generation needs, a talent to be in awe of!” – NME

“Teenage joy personified. Woozy songs perfectly capture the feeling of being young and in love.” – THE FADER

Fun fact

For the majority of the album he sings about his love for his girlfriend Thea, who in turn writes him songs as a sign of affection. “The fictional couple we're most like is probably Beauty and The Beast”, says the lovey dovey pair.
