Thana Alexa sings “You Are Not Alone”

Thana Alexa is an award winning vocalist, composer, and arranger who lives with her husband Antonio in Jackson Heights. Both musicians tour the world together making music, and travel between their two native homes of Croatia and Mexico. She released her debut album “Ode to Heroes” in 2015, an album of original compositions and arrangements, where she paid tribute to the people in her life who have greatly influenced her musical and personal development. Two of those people included her mother, who lives with Bipolar Disorder, and her brother, who passed away in 2010 from a tragic motorcycle accident. Thana has experienced the ups and downs of her mother’s episodes throughout her life – especially after the passing of her brother – and, through her music, tells the story of her mother’s continuous triumph over her illness.

Thana Alexa sings “You Are Not Alone” in the This Is My Brave NYC show in 2018.
