Alex Cameron's newest and most musically expansive LP, the glistening Miami Memory, takes a surprising turn.

Cameron's flair for narrative and character are still on full display; yet Miami Memory's most frequent narrator is, for the first time, Cameron himself_singing with stunning candor of his three-year relationship with his girlfriend.

"When you listen to these songs, and you're waiting for the twist, or the joke, or any kind of discomfort, I can assure you none of those things were there when I wrote them," says Cameron.

"These are true stories, of actual events. Specific but never esoteric. And graphic but never offensive.

Miami Memory is the story of a couple balancing sex with contemporary family values...It's my gift to my girlfriend, a symbol to hoist on the totem of love."
