Which will be released in the summer Alex is also about to embark on an acoustic world tour.
Alex is influenced and always has been by the greats such as
Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Robert Johnson, Tom Petty, The Band, etc.. the list goes on.
He is a changed man from the days with his former band mates Hurricane#1
And is his own boss in what he writes expresses and feels .
“When I was with Hurricane#1 I had little input on what should be done and written within the band
so it is great to be my own boss and do the stuff I have always loved”.
Alex’s new album has the acts of a man that cares about lyrics and melodies.
Rancho Diablo is the work of a very underrated artist.
The words are prolific and the melodies clean, simple and catchy.
The new album like the last, speaks of the devil, hangings whores and drunken brawls and war.
“Step Forward All False Prophets” 2006
Was Alex first attempt at an acoustic sounding album
With great outcome and interest it sold 5000 copies.

“The World Tour”
The world tour will kick off in Scotland on the 10th of April at The Classic Grand Glasgow, where
Alex will be performing at the charity event “Doing It For The Kids” then to England USA Canada Holland
France Malaysia and so on and so on. The type of places Alex will be playing on the world tour will be very
diverse,Such as New York coffee bars to festivals in the back woods of Tennesse
Maybe the acoustic Americana folk thing has always been in his blood……………?
Hi Aunt Sheila MacGregor is a very well known scottish folk artist and recently received the MBE for her folk
contributions. And her mother Belle Stewart Alex great grandmother who was awarded the BEM for her contributions.
Alex also recently found out that the great Jazz guitarist (Martin Taylor MBE) is a cousin
So the signs are there.
Its been a long time since Alex has hit the road for such a gruelling tour
But he has the edge and songs to see it is through.
“Old Friends”
There is even talk of collaboration with his old mate Andy Bell who joined some band called
Oasis.
Look out for that one.
“Andy and I did speak about doing some collaboration on my album or any tracks for that matter so it could happen in
the very near future”.
