Hello, my name is Alejandro Adan, and yes that is my real name! I am 18 years old and a vocalist. I sing Pop, R&B, and Jazz, although I am a little different than most singers. I was born with a ear defect called Microtia, in translation it means little ear, I hear through my left ear, but that has not stopped me from doing what I love, singing and writing music that help people relate to troubles like mine. I have been told by many people that I have an amazing voice. Since the age of 4, people have said many great things about my voice. It is my passion to inspire people to tell them that they are beautiful people! I have written music that will make people dance and have fun or make people smile in sad times. I have had experience singing in front of lots of people, from talent shows to singing the american anthem at a big baseball game in Minnesota. This brings me to were i have lived in my life, I lived 1 year in Mexico with my mother and father (2000-2001) i lived in Florida (2001-2002), Minnesota, Monticello (2002-2006), Las Vegas 3 months, Minnesota (2006-present), BUT my life has not been like any other teen. My family has been through some tough times, from me having to protect my mom and sisters from my father. My father is Mexican, and that is why I lived in mexico for a year. At the age 8, my Father left and moved back to Mexico leaving my Mom to take care of us, but she was very depressed, having to work very hard to support me and my two little sisters. That is when my grandfather came into my life and helped me through those times, he taught me how to respect people and taught me some good music on respect. That is when i started to listen to classic rock. It helped me and made me happy, and it still does. Then my Grandfather told me he went to school and graduated with Bob Dylan! I had no clue who he was, until 2013, the year my Grandfather sadly passed away. My Mom showed me "Knocking on Heavens Door" and she told me that was Bob Dylan. I listened to the lyrics and it taught me powerful knowledge in music, and that is when i started to dedicate my life to singing and song writing. My music makes people stronger and tougher. I hope this brief summary of my life can help you understand why I am different. Thank you Isina.
