what happened to alex warren's parents

Alex Warren has spoken publicly about losing both of his parents at a young age. His father died of kidney cancer when he was nine, and his mother, who struggled with alcoholism, died a few years after he left home, with reports noting alcohol-related liver and kidney failure as contributing factors. This background has shaped his music and public storytelling, including remarks about processing grief and keeping his parents’ memory alive through his work. If you’d like, I can share more specifics from interviews or explain how this history influenced particular songs or albums.
