About Me


I'm Alex Roots, I'm 16 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...
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.
Meeting all the awesome people at Good Groove has really got everything going. I left school to pursue my music, I now have a band together 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. We have done shows at loads of cool places including Nottinghill Arts Club, The Cobden Club, Proud Galleries, The Good Ship, Big Chill House... Recently i got asked to suport Mcfly in Wolverhampton at the Civic, it was the best experience of my life so far, the crowd reacted so well! My shows at the Cherry Jam went really well and their was a good turn out so thanks to everyone for coming and supporting me :)
Please become part of my gang... Just go to in4merz.com and join the street team! They have exlusive news, and if you enter competitions you can come and see me play live :) I have met some lovely in4merz along the way, i love you guys!
I am doing a limited release of my single 'Fake' on May 11th...If you join up to my Mailing List, you can receive an exclusive "Raw" mix of Fake!
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.
