From singing Johnny Cash covers in bars at just eight years old to racking up over 86 million streams, Roman Alexander has built his career on grit, faith, and heart. A grandson of Mexican immigrants and a true Midwesterner, Roman chased his dream to Nashville—enduring long days and dead-end jobs until his breakout duet “Between You & Me” made him one of Spotify’s longest-running independent country artists.

With his new EP Midwest Calling, Roman shares the stories of where he’s from, what he’s carried, and why he’ll never stop believing in the music that brought him here. For him, success isn’t about charts—it’s about connection, faith, and the small circle of people who make it all matter.
