Alex the Astronaut is Alexandra Frances Lynn, a folk-pop singer-songwriter from Sydney born in 1995, and she writes the kind of plainspoken, wide-eyed songs that sound like a friend telling you something true over a cup of tea. The 2017 EP See You Soon carried "Not Worth Hiding", a soft, strummed introduction to that voice.

Her debut album, The Theory of Absolutely Nothing, arrived in August 2020 and climbed to number 22 on the ARIA albums chart, with the warm, bouncy "I Think You're Great" among its highlights. How to Grow a Sunflower Underwater followed in July 2022. She also runs her own label, Minkowski Records, cheekily named after the Minkowski diagram.
