Elias Alexander is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and songwriter whose work swells from the intersection of traditional music, electronic production, and songwriting.
His latest project Ramblxr (pronounced “rambler”), juxtaposes traditional fiddle and bagpipe tunes with dance music influenced by house and disco. Neither a DJ nor a band, Elias is one of those rare performers who achieves full flight using the power of electronics with live instruments.
He has been compared to Fred again.., Dirtwire, and FKJ, with a live show that takes audiences on a mind-blowing journey, eliciting everything from wild dancing to tears. The show highlights Elias’s skill as a consummate performer with a unique ability to connect with and move a crowd.
Elias Alexander made a name for himself in the pre-pandemic days as one of the foremost exponents of traditional Scottish music in America, touring with numerous groups and playing many of the top celtic festivals including Celtic Connections (2017 with Gillebride MacMillan) and Celtic Colours (2019 with Farsan)
He currently tours as the pipes and whistle player with Old Blind Dogs in North America. Ramblxr arose out of the early lockdowns of 2020, when Elias found himself blending the traditional acoustic music of his youth with house, disco, hip-hop, and lo-fi sounds. Emerging with this new music in hand in 2021, he has taken festival stages by storm, with standout performances at Oregon Country Fair, BlissFest, Sisters Folk Fest, Portland Pride, Bellingham Folk Festival, and many others.
Elias continues to expand on the journey that began with Ramblxr, with more releases planned that bring in wider influences from pop to latin to hip-hop.
