Rex Orange County
Alexander James O'Connor (born 4 May 1998), known professionally as Rex Orange County, is a British singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Grayshott, England. NPR Music's Zoë Jones has described O'Connor's music as "a bright blend of hip-hop, jazz, and bedroom pop".
Teaching himself how to produce his own music at the age of 16, he released his debut album, Bcos U Will Never B Free (2015), on Bandcamp and SoundCloud. O'Connor then released numerous solo singles throughout 2016 and 2017, including the Platinum-certified singles, "Sunflower" and "Best Friend", and then released his second album, Apricot Princess (2017). Tyler, the Creator collaborated with O'Connor on two songs from Tyler's fourth album, Flower Boy (2017), which caused O'Connor to rise in prominence, allowing him to sign with RCA Records.
O'Connor released his third album, Pony (2019), lyrically exploring more personal topics and experimenting with different genres. The album became his first to enter the Billboard 200 in the United States, peaking at number 3 on the chart. His fourth studio album, Who Cares? (2022), topped the UK Albums Chart and peaked at number 5 on the Billboard 200. He released his fifth album, The Alexander Technique, in late 2024.
