Alex Dunn: Terravin Cellars (solo)

Reformed commercial fisherman and singer-songwriter Alex Dunn recently left Seattle and relocated to the rural outskirts of Aztec, New Mexico. 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. 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, Washington 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 including Anna Tivel, Eli West, Sam Esecson and Birch Pereira.

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.

"The dreamy and ethereal opening track, “Finally,” sets the twangy, but not overtly so, sound for the seven songs that follow. Dunn creates a sonic landscape that borders on melancholy with songs like “Southern Star” and “Linden Street.” Meanwhile, “Ain’t Quite Sure” and a cover of Ted Hawkins's “Sorry You're Sick” punch into country-rock territory, with overdriven guitars and rumbling drums that beg for performance in a rural honky-tonk." - DENVER WESTWORD

"Dunn is a storyteller, whose songs are populated by characters and have a strong sense of place... ‘Southern Star’ has grown naturally from the acoustic folk of Dunn’s debut ‘Scattered Poems’, itself an excellent record; it’s a more layered and varied take on Americana and absolutely worth checking out." - AMERICANA-UK

“Universal, tender, and timeless.” - The Daily Country

“Reflective of the bittersweet amalgam of love and loss, packaged into layered, ruminative folk and Americana.” – For Folk’s Sake
