Hey there! My name is Alex. I am a multi-instrumentalist and vocalist from central Illinois. I'm the leading lady in a nationally touring band called Alex and the XO's- an indie-pop alternative 4-piece that features electric ukulele and mandolin. We are endorsed by Kala Brand Music Company, Kamoa Ukuleles, Dillion Guitars, Eastman Guitars, Eastwood Mandolins, and Downwrite.
Thanks for your time!!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

As an up-and-coming band, we find ourselves on the road a lot. Touring is a lot of fun, but there's little things we miss- homey things. We're going to give couch surfing another shot for our upcoming Fall Tour (November 2016) (with our SUV + Trailer in tow) and look forward to meeting some new cool people (the best and most important part of tour)! Alex and the XO's couch surfed for the first time throughout our East Coast Tour (September & October of 2015) and had a BLAST hanging out with everyone on here. Can't wait to meet more of you lovely people here on couchsurfing. Thanks a million for your time and consideration!! We appreciate it.

When we're off tour, I love to: "up-cycle" and reupholster furniture, garden, cook, and bake! I also just bought my very first home- a "fixer upper" -where I have learned to LOVE renovating!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

We can provide an acoustic concert for homeowners (if desired) and some free band merch for letting us stay at their house! (There is a possibility that we can snag free concert tickets to the show we play in your city, depending on venue contracts)
