What Would Alex Listen To? | Stardew Valley Playlists
Updated: Aug 10
Is his cockiness just a facade to mask his crushing self-doubt? Is he using his sports dream to fill the void left by the disappearance of his parents? Or is he just a brazen youth trying to 'look cool?'”
— Dev Update #12

Alex is one of the first people you'll meet when you arrive in Pelican Town. Living with his grandparents, George and Evelyn, Alex spends much of his time working out, playing sports and dreaming about becoming a professional athlete. He can come across as confident (even a little arrogant), but getting to know him reveals a much more thoughtful side.

Stardew Valley’s Bachelor – Who Exactly Is Alex?
Stardew Valley is set in the charming town of Pelican Town, where players are introduced to a diverse cast of characters, including Alex. He is an athletic and charismatic villager who exudes confidence but has some self-doubt. Alex can be found southeast of Pierre’s General Store and is not just the town’s resident jock but also a simple soul. He grapples with self-doubt and the emotional aftermath of his parents’ disappearance.
Every character in Stardew Valley has their own personality, interests, relationships and quirks. Some are energetic and outgoing, while others are quieter and more introspective. Some spend their days working, creating, exploring or taking care of others. Naturally, all of that got us wondering: what would their taste in music actually look like?

This playlist is ultimately our interpretation, and we'd love to hear yours. Did we get it right, or would you give this character a completely different soundtrack?
