Xanthe Alexis:

Born near Arizona’s Superstition Mountains, Alexis spent much of her early youth in Michigan, where she grew up steeped in mysticism. At 15, she relocated to Colorado; at 19, she became pregnant with her first child; and at 20, she lost her sister to a heart defect. Those tumultuous years helped crystallize both Alexis’s need to create and her gift for connection, which led her to pursue a life centered around helping others through language and music. After opening a healing center with her mother, Alexis released her critically lauded debut, ‘Time of War,’ in 2016. Hailed as “arresting” and “intimate” by the Colorado Springs Independent, the album garnered a best of 2017 award from Roots Music Report, earned Alexis dates everywhere from Folk Alliance to

Americanafest, and helped her land a three-week residency at NYC art collective the Mothership. Longing for a change after more than a decade of touring the US and Europe by car and van, Alexis eventually traded in the road for the rails, supporting the album with a series of whirlwind tours that crisscrossed the western United States by train.
