ALCOA

ALCOA is the side project of Defeater frontman Derek Archambault. The project showcases a more acoustic and folk-oriented side of his musical talents, diverging from Defeater's hardcore punk roots. ALCOA's music is characterized by its introspective lyrics and melodic, sometimes melancholic, acoustic compositions. The project's debut album, "Bone & Marrow," was released in 2013 and received positive reviews for its heartfelt songwriting and emotional depth. Following the success of "Bone & Marrow," ALCOA continued to produce music that resonated with fans of the genre, further establishing Derek Archambault as a versatile artist capable of crossing over into different musical territories beyond his work with Defeater.
