Alexander Flood

Alexander Flood is one of Australia’s commanding beat-masters, possessing a finessed arsenal of groove, power, and expertise on the drums. His unique sound and approach on the instrument has been crafted through many years of study, dedication and hustling. Leading his own band from the drum chair, Alex’s music pushes a fresh rhythmic and dynamic realm of live dance music leaning on nu-jazz, deep-house, broken beat, DnB, funk, and experimental sounds.

Winning Australia’s Best Up and Coming Drummer Competition in 2016 was just the beginning of Flood’s accelerating trajectory in music.

In 2020, just a few years after graduating top of his University jazz degree, Alex signed with US label Stretch Music to release his debut album Heartbeat, followed by his sophomore release The Space Between in 2022. While in Berlin Flood recorded his third album Oscillate with an all-star lineup of Horatio Luna, Àbáse, and Paulo Cedraz, released via Jakarta Records in May 2023.
