ALEX DUNN is currently based out of the high desert of northern New Mexico. He has recorded alongside folk luminaries Anna Tivel and Eli West and he has had the opportunity to share the stage with artists such as Marty O'Reilly, Rachel Baiman, Robbie Fulks, Kassi Valazza, Rainbow Girls, Hen House Prowlers, Sammy Brue, and many more. 

Dunn uses his own personal blend of Folk/Americana to reflect on the many lives he's led, from his youth along the border of Colorado and Wyoming to the quiet moments aboard commercial fishing vessels in the remote waters of Southeast Alaska, where he spent over a decade toiling on the sea and writing songs during his down time.  Melodic sawdust and salt air, his music breathes with a sense of place, yet is imminently accessible and speaks to the universal.  

His debut record Scattered Poems  was recorded in the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle, WA and released in the fall of 2018 - an elegant and timeless debut, graced by the talents of some of the Northwest’s finest roots musicians.

Partnering with the label Color Red, he released his sophomore LP Southern Star on 12/3/21 - which he recorded with his band at Avast Recording Company and co-produced alongside multi-instrumentalist Bryant Moore (True Loves).  It was mastered by legendary engineer Greg Calbi (Paul Simon, Bruce Springstein, Talking Heads, Blondie, Muddy Waters, Bon Iver, you name it).

Dunn and Moore collaborated again to record an EP "You Just Jump In" set for release NOVEMBER 22nd 2024.
