David Bowie’s daughter Lexi Jones has released her debut album Xandri, with a sweet nod to her legendary father.

The late singer’s only daughter Lexi, 24, real name Alexandria Zahra Jones, has teased her new music on her Instagram throughout this week.

She posted exclusive snippets of her songs alongside never-before-seen videos of her childhood – including a heart-warming clip of her and David.

Lexi, whose mother is David’s widow, the supermodel Iman, 69, posted a video of her and her father singing when she was a child.

Xandri, a Greek word meaning ‘defender of mankind’, was released on Wednesday featuring tracks including Through All The Time, Moving On and Standing Alone.

A fan in her comments pointed out she resembled her father’s voice in her new music.

Last year, Lexi described the anguish she felt after losing her father.

‘I confused living life with surviving life’s days by filling my body’s bottomless void, drowning myself in toxins and poison,’ she recalled.

‘I involved myself in things I never expected to be part of. Situating myself in situations that contributed to the already crumbling foundation of my family eventually led to lonely isolation.

‘I’ve hurt the ones I loved most with hateful words to make them feel at least a little bit of the pain I went through every day. 

‘It felt easier to label myself as a psychopath, rather than to have admitted to the lack of introspection in an effort to justify my harmful actions.

‘Growing to be such a violent and angry individual was unbelievably contradictory to the sweet and gentle little girl I used to be.’

Lexi grew up in New York with her father and Iman, his second wife.

Lexi has previously said: ‘I have struggled with mental health issues. Art has always been a coping mechanism to get out of dark places.’

One the anniversary of her father’s death last year, Lexi shared a heartwarming video of her as a young girl playing the piano alongside the beaming rocker. 

The video appears to show father and daughter in the recording studio with young Lexi effortlessly displaying her talents on the keyboard.

She also shared a sweet pH๏τo of her cuddling up to her beloved parent who gazed at her adoringly. Lexi captioned the post: ‘7 years ago today. I miss you’.

Lexi has a half-brother, the film director Duncan Jones, 53, whose mother is the singer’s first wife, Angie Bowie, 75.

Duncan was named Zowie Bowie to rhyme with his father’s stage name, but he started using the name Duncan aged 18.

After her birth, it was said that Lexi helped her father put his workaholic atтιтude ‘into perspective’ and give him the will to stay healthy after his first heart attack. 

David kept his liver cancer battle mostly private, and succumbed to the disease in 2016, just days after turning 69.
