Alexandra Frances Lynn[1] (born 3 March 1995), known professionally as Alex the Astronaut, is an Australian folk-pop singer-songwriter.

[3] Lynn graduated from Pymble Ladies' College in Sydney before studying maths and physics at Long Island University, New York,[4] including a thesis on sonoluminescence,[5] where she played soccer for the LIU Post Pioneers as a forward.

The EP features the single "Already Home", which was described by HuffPost Australia as "a melancholy number about a bus ride and ruminations on the mundanities of life".

[9] "Not Worth Hiding" ranked at number 23 on Triple J Hottest 100 and it described as an unofficial anthem for the "Yes" campaign in the Australian Marriage Law Postal Survey.

Alex The Astronaut tweeted the inspiration upon release, and James and Oliver Phelps, who played the Weasley twins, both retweeted the post.

[18] The accompanying music video for the single features an appearance from Lindy Morrison of the Go-Betweens, and shows the two playing tennis and drumming competitively.

[19] The Line of Best Fit described her debut album as "a record packed full of vibrant, witty, insightful and heart-rending storytelling, all hooked around rich and tender folk-pop melodies".
