Colorado singer-songwriter Alexa Wildish grew up in a musical family in Southern California, studying classical voice from age seven. A transformative experience at 17, when she saw The Wailin’ Jennys perform, inspired her to transition from musical theatre to Americana, leading her to embrace songwriting and learn guitar and octave mandolin. In 2020, Wildish released her self-titled debut EP, quickly establishing herself as a standout in Americana and earning first place at Planet Bluegrass’s emerging singer-songwriter competition. Co-produced by Dan Knobler and Russell Durham, the EP features collaborations with notable musicians and highlights her pristine voice, often compared to Alison Krauss and Eva Cassidy. Her latest EP, After Love, follows her celebrated run on NBC’s The Voice in 2023 and showcases her ambitious approach to the cover song genre. The first single, “everything i wanted,” reimagines Billie Eilish’s hit as an ethereal folk piece. Wildish also offers bold interpretations of Tom Petty’s “You Don’t Know How It Feels,” country classic “I’m No Stranger to the Rain,” and songs by Cher, Brandi Carlile, and Fleetwood Mac. With a talent for capturing the heart of a song, Wildish infuses her covers with fresh perspectives and emotional depth. After Love stands as a lush tribute to the art of cover songs, showcasing her vocal mastery and poetic sensitivity. When not performing live or touring, Wildish resides in Lyons, Colorado, where she inspires people of all ages as a vocal coach, helping them uncover the magic of their own voices.
