Alex Shumway (better known as Alex Vincent) was the drummer for the bands Spluii Numa and, later, one of the pioneers of the grunge scene, Green River.[1] After Green River had broken up, Shumway moved to Japan. He later moved back to the United States and upon doing so began work in politics and labor union related organizations.
Today he is a stay-at-home father with his adopted daughters[2] and continues to play music.
In 2008, Green River reunited for the 20 year anniversary of the Sub Pop record label and have played several live shows since. There are speculative plans for a new album, and possible tour.
In October 2010 he was location producer and actor for a semi-documentary film tentatively titled "Big In Japan", directed by John Jeffcoat.
