Alex Donald has been around and involved with music since she was a child. She was practically raised on tour as her father is the legendary Irish jazz saxophonist Keith Donald who was in seminal band Moving Hearts. She did her first recording session as a vocalist with renowned Irish musician and Pogues member Terry Woods when she was 13.

In 2007 Alex returned to Dublin from London where she was living for a couple of years. In addition to DJing, Alex is a writer, contributing to Hot Press and State magazines, and has also written a novel.
