Alexander Grawoig
Alexander Grawoig (n. 1988, EE. UU.) es un artista autodidacta. Desde 2008 ha estado en un alboroto creativo, componiendo, grabando y lanzando música aclamada en varios sellos discográficos (incluidos Leaving Records, Preservation, Superior Viaduct y Shelter Press), actuando bajo diferentes alias, incluidos D/P/I & Deep Magic y como parte de Sun Araw. Con Sun Araw, Alexander realizó una gira por el mundo tocando la guitarra y el saxofón y dio forma a la dirección de la banda durante 6 años.
En 2016, agotado por la ardua agenda de giras y grabaciones, y recientemente casado con el amor de su vida, Alexander se mudó a la Ciudad de México, tomó un descanso de la música y construyó varios negocios exitosos en línea, y finalmente vendió todos menos uno. Alexander comenzó a pintar en serio en 2022. Por esa época, Alexander descubrió que su bisabuelo era judío y, ante la persecución, huyó de Rusia con su familia en 1889. También fue pintor hacia el final de su vida. Profundamente impresionado por esta información, Alexander adoptó el apellido original de su familia, Grawoig.

Alexander Grawoig (b.1988, USA) is a self taught artist. Since 2008 he has been on a creative rampage, composing, recording, and releasing acclaimed music on a number of record labels (including Leaving Records, Preservation, Superior Viaduct, and Shelter Press), performing under different aliases including D/P/I & Deep Magic and as a part of Sun Araw. With Sun Araw, Alexander toured the world playing guitar, saxophone, and shaped the direction of the band over 6 years.
In 2016, exhausted from the arduous schedule of touring and recording, and recently married to the love of his life, Alexander moved to Mexico City, took a hiatus from music, and built several successful online businesses, eventually selling all but one. Alexander began painting seriously in 2022. Around that time, Alexander discovered that his great grandfather was Jewish and, facing persecution, fled Russia with his family in 1889. He was also a painter towards the end of his life. Deeply impressed by this information Alexander adopted his family’s original surname, Grawoig.
