Alex & Sierra

Alex & Sierra were an American pop duo formed by Alex Kinsey and Sierra Deaton, a couple who won the third and final season of «The X Factor USA», becoming the first and only group to win the American edition of the show. Their victory launched a recording career built on close vocal harmonies, acoustic-leaning pop arrangements, and country-tinged melodic sensibilities.

Signed to Columbia Records, they released their debut album, «It's About Us», on October 7, 2014, followed by the EP «As Seen on TV» on September 30, 2016. Songs like «Little Do You Know» and «Bumper Cars» became known for their emotionally direct, relationship-focused songwriting, often built around the real-life dynamic between the two singers.

On September 1, 2017, Alex & Sierra announced they had broken up as a couple over a year earlier and would no longer make music together, each moving on to pursue solo careers. Their catalog remains a notable example of a reality-competition act translating into a genuine, emotionally resonant pop-country songwriting partnership.
