He was raised in a musically diverse home. His mother Laura was a disc jockey and manager of the local classical station, 92.7 KBOQ. As a young boy, Alexander was always encouraged to study the classics. His father Vince played the guitar and introduced Alexander to the iconic singer/songwriters of the 60s, 70s & 80s. When Alexander was 3 years old, he told his mom he wanted to play the violin. He began studying the Suzuki method with local teachers, and went on to be 1st chair violin at the local youth chamber orchestra. Alexander now lives in Los Angeles where he works as a professional singer, songwriter, producer & actor. He has worked as an actor in Film, TV and Web Shows. He can be seen in his first starring role in Chad Peter's dark comedy "Apocalypse, CA" now available on DVD, Netflix & iTunes. He had a combined role (both on and off screen) when David Fincher cast him to play the jewish steel drummer in the film "The Social Network." Alexander was seen on screen as the steel drummer, but also recorded the drums for the soundtrack to the scene as well. Alexander co-writes his songs with his producer, Morgan Taylor Reid (Available on iTunes). Morgan also produces/co-writes for other bands, including: Chris Brown, Plug-In Stereo, The Ready Set, and the new Backstreet Boys album, among others. Morgan had been producing Alexander since they met on college in 2005.

Other songs Alexander has written have been in episodes of Ghost Whisperer (CBS), Castle (ABC), Grey's Anatomy (ABC), Friends With Benefits (NBC), 90210 (CW) & more. Alexander has also co-written (top-line) songs for other artists. In the spring of 2011 Alexander launched his fan pages online. He now has a dedicated following of over 500,000 fans on his Facebook & Twitter pages. The word seems to be spreading via electronic grass roots about his music. Today he continues to perform live, establishing his position as an emotionally revealing and talented new artist. He is now on tour with pop star Aaron Carter promoting his new single "One Shot". He recently finished a sold out NATIONAL TOUR, opening for YouTube sensations & winners of NBC's THE SING OFF: Pentatonix. In the current renaissance of pop singer/songwriters, Alexander Cardinale stands out with dense, contagious melodies and honest, poetic lyricism.
