Bio
.... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. Hey Guys! Thanks for visiting my Myspace, I am Alex Roots. I’m 17 and I am an artist from the UK. I have been co-writing and recording my album ‘Adrenaline Rush’ since I was 14 with my buddy Ryan Laubscher. A.K.A Lauby, I am still writing and recording in the studio now so always keep tuned for new songs! .... My music is very 80’s influenced, even though i was born in 1992! It has been a lot of fun learning about artists that i have been compared to, Lene Lovich…she was one crazy lady! However i grew up to the music of Queen, and heard some of Cyndi Lauper, thanks to the rents! ‘Don’t Stop Looking’ was hugely influenced by Queen. .... After meeting everyone at Good Groove things have really got going! I have my own band who are insane at what they do! Shane Lee, Jackson Ellis and Chris Gulino. We are serious about what we do, but we also have a laugh, a bit too much as you will see in some of my videos. I have played at loads of cool venues such at the Notting Hill Arts Club, Proud Galleries, Cobden club as well as being lucky enough to support Mcfly in Wolverhampton! Calvin Harris at the 02 and loads of shows with the Sugababes which have been amaaazing and have taken me to lots of interesting places I’ve never been to before including forests! I also have made two music videos for 'Fake' and 'Don't Stop Looking' .... I have presented the 519 show for BBC Switch which was a crazyyy experience, as well as being a guest, I am always making my own videos and acoustic covers and you can find them all on You tube! I am loving everything at the moment especially the contact I get to have directly with people who are getting excited about my music! Having contact through my website, Twitter, Facebook, Myspace and Youtube. I always love hearing what you guys think is cool to do, whether it's making new videos and song suggestions :) Thank you so much for your support! For blogs and videos and more exciting news go to my website www.alexroots.net .... Thank you for all the emails and comments, I really appreciate it. I am glad you enjoy the music like I enjoy writing and performing it. I am looking forward to getting in the studio more and more this year, writing with different producers and trying different sounds to my voice, I love getting excited about music! ....
