notes
Following The Elevens was titled after a bizarre, uncanny series of coincidences. Preceding the completion of this album, the number 11 mirroring itself began appearing frequently at the most unusual moments. "It helped keep me going towards completing this record," Augie says, "The Elevens were sort of a sign that I was on the right track."
Consisting of eleven tracks including an intro and interlude, Following The Elevens is a unique and well-produced first album for augiealexander.com. Most noteworthy, is his original approach to orchestration and his signature style of guitar rhythms.
Produced in a modest project studio, Augie tracked all his own instruments including bass, live & programmed drum tracks, guitars, keyboards, percussion, background and lead vocals. None of the final mixes were cross-referenced or commented on by industry professionals, ultimately making this album a true work of art, not a mainstream commercialized product.
Snake Dance, one of the most popular tracks, has been the first to undergo a bit of modern digital enhancement. "I have plans to do some touching up," says Alexander, "Now that I've incorporated Pro-Tools in my work, I'd like to make The Elevens a bit more friendly to the average mortal."

This album blew me away.
This album blew me away on the first listen. It's hard to compare it because it is a truly original sound. I feel like I know this man's soul through his songs.
