Bio
Skye Alexander is a queer singer-songwriter who is grounded in the traditional music of the British Isles and North America. Her expressive voice evokes the ballad singers of a bygone era, while her poetic lyrics and Americana-inspired melodies capture modern stories about loss and hope. Monkey House presenter Ira Marlowe says, "Skye Alexander is not afraid to reach into the darkest recesses of the human soul, all the while enchanting you with her lovely voice and lilting melodies." She has performed at the Phoenix St. Patrick’s Day Faire, the Bay Celtic Festival, the 39 Days of July, and other festivals, and enjoys playing at cafes and intimate venues. She sings with acclaimed Victoria, BC choir Ensemble Laude. She also writes fiction; visit her at Skye Allen for the story side of things. She lives with her wife on Lekwungen and W̱SÁNEĆ territory.
