Cyan Tempest is the musical vehicle for multi-instrumentalist, producer/composer Aleksander McMillan.

Starting his musical journey at the age of 9, he first picked up the electric guitar and since then has taught himself to play multiple instruments including bass, drums, piano which allow him to create full band productions. His musical career is one that has taken many shapes and forms, most notably as the lead guitarist and producer of rock band Salt River Shakedown.

Alek has always aspired to release music of his own as a producer, Cyan Tempest is the alter ego that allows his imagination to run wild with creativity, producing everything entirely on his own, from song-writing to recording all his instruments, production, mixing and mastering, completed at his studio. Debut single Elevate gave us us a peak into his pop infused R&B world and the track received rave reviews across the airwaves with Shereen Cutkelvin (Neon Jungle) of BBC Introducing Radio Scotland declaring
“I could not stop bopping my head and toes”.

New single Moonlight is released Friday 23rd July and it has already been premiered on BBC Introducing Radio Scotland where it was also made ‘Track of the Week’.
