早年經歷

Alan出生在倫敦西部阿克頓的一個中產家庭里。受他父母的鼓勵,他八歲開始學習鋼琴。此後,他在St Clement Danes Grammar學校學習長笛並在學校里的樂隊成為帶頭音樂家。他在學校期間音樂上受打擊樂手Ted Ing的影響,之後Alan便和Ted一起創建了樂隊Cloaca。畢業後,Alan在DJM Studios做助理工作。

演藝經歷

Alan在1982年到1995年間一直在樂隊Depeche Mode擔任鍵盤手並全權參與樂隊歌曲的各種複雜編曲工作。此期間,Alan也在紀錄片101中展示了不同的合成器部分歌曲的分離和安排抽樣在他們巡演期間如何進行的。有趣的是,在DM創建初期由於成員Vince Clarke的離開,樂隊不得不廣告招募新成員作為鍵盤手,Alan在面試時謊報了自己的年齡(樂隊要求成員低於21歲,而那時Alan已經22歲了),可之後因為無可否認的才華,Alan成功逃脫了這一問題。之後1995年因為與樂隊成員觀念衝突,Alan在他36歲生日的時候宣布離開樂隊Depeche Mode。有訊息稱Alan離開的原因是因為樂隊成員在此期間Dave吸毒成癮,Andrew一度因精神問題離隊修養(Andrew在巡演的最後39場演出均未出現),這讓Alan在面對全世界成千上萬的歌迷面前不得不承受巨大的壓力。更有訊息稱,在巡演的某一場開場前兩天,巡演的編曲準備工作還離Alan的構想相差甚遠,Alan不得不自己再重新編排所有歌曲的創作。Alan在後台與Dave大吵一架後宣布離開樂隊。(不過rumor,看看就好...不過也能解釋一部分原因。)
家庭
Alan的第一任妻子名叫Hep並育有一女。Hep在theFaith and Devotion巡演中懷孕。
