Alex is the guitarist / singer for alternative rock band Skinny Hobos. Alex Ferrier (aka Alex Elvis) and drummer Sam Holdom first met at high school and didn’t immediately click. Alex put’s it simply “He kind of thought I was a dick and I probably was.” Some years later they ended up working at the same instrument store and during a jam one night after the store closed, the two discovered their musical kinship. Skinny Hobos went on to become a popular band on the local touring scene and built a loyal audience with singles like The Merchant of Tirau. On this episode we talk about bands, gear, touring immediately after lockdown and Alex makes a surprise announcement about the future of Skinny Hobos.
