Alice Baldwin is a pianist and self-taught composer, photographer and videographer, currently living in Berlin, Germany. She first touched a piano at the age of five and neglected to do her piano lesson homework for the following twelve years. She soon found that creating music helps to cope with challenging situations in life and started to weave musical pieces inspired by personal experiences. Her instrumental works are primarily for solo piano, sometimes accompanied by synth or strings. As an advocate of radical softness, she supports the idea that "unapologetically sharing your emotions is a political move and a way to combat the societal idea that feelings are a sign of weakness" - Lora Mathis
