   About Alan Semerdjian
Alan Semerdjian may be one of the best singer/songwriters you've never heard of. He has played over 900 shows in the last dozen years or so, placed his music in tv and film, played on wfuv (his favorite radio station - thank you, John P.), charted on cmj, and earned the respect of lots of critics and fans along the way. After several years of performing in alternative/indie/experimental rock bands, he self-released "When There Was Something Wrong With You" in 2005 and traveled across the country on three separate mini-tours to support it. His new collection of songs (called "The Big Beauty" and produced by Mike Bloom of Rilo Kiley and The Elected) is his most accessible work to date and features an incredible bunch of musicians, friends, and special guests who come together to create a sweet kind of semipop indiefolk acoustic rock music that is both intimate and playful, hauntingly poetic, spirited, and uniquely unforgettable.

"Can't Wait" Music Video/ Mini-Documentary/Public Art Project by Alan Semerdjian and Haik Kocharian. Music by Alan Semerdjian. Directed by Haik Kocharian.
