Alex Roberts

The UK Roots Movement are proud to introduce.



UK Roots artist - Alex Roberts - blends genres from baroque to blues, with vocals and finger-style guitar, some fine lap-steel, bouzouki and harmonica playing, and a stomp-box to boot.



With a catalogue of some three-hundred songs, gathered from his travels around the world, Alex set out from his tipi and on to the road. Performing in venues and festivals as far afield as Copenhagen to Barbados. 2009 saw over 150 shows.



Alex pushes the boundaries of his songs with each performance. There is an urgency beneath the gentleness of his composition. His writing is honest and direct. On stage he threads themes and stories into a timeless web of song.



With graceful style and masterful technique, vocal lines ebb and flow around elegant instrumental work. The result is an 'uplifting and wholesome union of voice and instrument'.



At home in Dorset, England, Alex teaches music & songwriting. This includes work with ‘Jail Guitar Doors’ - a project to aid rehabilitation, through music, in a young offender’s institute.



Alex's new album - Fairwood & Stone - is available now from:
