An exhilarating collection of songs, the album title reflects the multi-instrumentalist's innate fascination in the pretenders of the world: everyday con-men, cult leaders and sham preachers.
Originally from Detroit, most of the songs on Alex's debut LP are inspired by books and documentaries about marginal subcultures in America, with the resulting record almost acting as a musical adaptation of the works of Errol Morris and Louis Theroux.
