About.

a hand-made banjo,

a hand-repaired radio,

looking for softness in the noise.

Born in Northampon, UK, Alex was based in Graz/Vienna Austria until 2024, when the solo-project Alex Knot began in Berlin, DE.

Alex Knot’s ideas are born on the delicate, nylon-string banjo made from scratch by his father. When the soft melodies harmonize our background noise, the song writing begins.

Alex Knot repairs old radios for a second life on stage for his live performances. When the song sits in the moment with the right interference, the repairing is done.

His debut EP “out of the factory” was recorded over winter 2024/25 and is due to release later this year. The record is an escape from exhaustion, empty entertainment, and error. It’s the repair-job following a poor choice; opting out of the broken illusion.

Alex Knot’s music comes from a forgotten room. A place we know we can imagine, if we drop what’s broken, if we fix the illusion.

Along side his solo project, Alex is an active member in the indie band Good Wilson who achieved millions of streams on Spotify and beyond. Furthermore, he has been a session and live musician for pedal-steel guitar in many alternative music projects including:

Pina Pilau (2024, 2025)
