Gregg Alexander

Gregg Alexander (born Gregory Aiuto; May 4, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, and record producer. He is the lead vocalist and guitarist for the alternative rock band New Radicals. After the release of their only album, Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too (1998), the group disbanded and Alexander shifted focus onto production and songwriting work for other artists. Since then, he has been credited on the singles "Life Is a Rollercoaster" and "Lovin' Each Day" by Ronan Keating, "Inner Smile" by Texas, "Murder on the Dancefloor" and "Mixed Up World" by Sophie Ellis-Bextor, all of which were commercial successes in the early 2000s. Alexander won a Grammy Award for his contributions to the 2003 single "The Game of Love" by Santana. He also co-wrote songs for the film Begin Again, including "Lost Stars", which was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song.
