Edit history

Alec Randles is an independent fingerstyle guitarist and roots musician from Canberra, Australia. His original music draws heavy influence from his backgrounds in Celtic, Classical, African and Flamenco guitar - always surprising audiences with rhythmic diversity, a powerful voice and thought-provoking lyricism. Music has taken Randles from Canberra to all across Aus, the United States, New Zealand and many a jam circles in the Blue Mountains of Jamaica. The early months of 2020 saw Alec embark on a successful four-city tour across New Zealand (selling out his debut show in Auckland) and has shared stages with renowned names such as Jeff Lang, 3x Golden Guitar awardee Michael Fix & Art v Science. The contrast between his originals such as 'These Days' and 'Peace of Mind' demonstrate Randles has a lot of feel. His material spans from earnest commentary on rising western oligarchy, to retelling stories of travel, love and new experiences.
