Road to ACL: Alexander



With the igeneration bursting at the technological seams, music possibilities are endless. Want to start a band and don’t have the vocal chops? No worries, there’s an app for that! But it’s not just auto tune taking over. Stages these days are littered in ipads and mac book pros. I guess Alexander Ebert didn’t get the imemo.
Front man of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, Alex is taking his music back to a primitive time, using his body for percussion, playing with his own vocal sounds, and even learned to play the violin. Every sound is Alex. Weaving his 60′s California sound with poetic lyrics, his music carries the same charm as his Magnetic Zeros band but scaled back and simplified. His music is hugs and sunny days. Catch him at ACL on Saturday.
