Alex Radus.
Award-winning singer-songwriter from PA known for his “genre whiplash” style, with an eclectic mix of Americana, folk, swing, and blues.
You might remember Alex Radus from his memorable but brief performance with Laurie MacAllister at the Rose Garden in 2026.
Alex Radus is hailed as a “versatile crooner” and “skillful fretman”, but his songwriting takes center stage. Known affectionately for his unique brand of “genre whiplash”, Alex pairs whimsical and poignant storytelling with an eclectic mix of Americana, folk, swing and blues. John Gorka calls Alex Radus a “remarkable artist…an excellent guitarist, songwriter and singer…worth going out of your way to hear.”
Alex was selected as a 2024 Falcon Ridge Folk Fest Emerging Artist and voted a “Most Wanted” artist to return to the Main Stage in 2025. His most recent release, Where Liberty Lives, reached #10 on the FAI Folk Radio charts. Where Liberty Lives “is the kind of song that reminds you what folk music was always meant to do. Timely, tender, and absolutely necessary.” (Rock the Pigeon Music Blog)
