BIO

Under his moniker Tone Ranger, Alex Simon is known for making infectious dance music that embodies the mysterious beauty of the desert. As a multi-instrumentalist and composer his work is a constant exploration of sound, forever seeking the essence of the places that inspire him.


Over the past years his work has taken him to remote landscapes to write music, which he records and produces in Santa Fe at his studio, Animalia Studios. Inspired by the nexus of vibrant cultures in the Southwest he seeks to celebrate the numerous music traditions that have guided his journey.


Since releasing his eponymous debut EP in 2018, he has become one of the most unique electronic acts emerging from the American Southwest. He has opened for a number of music legends including Orbital and Thievery Corporation and recently played at Shambhala Festival and Burning Man. Alex Simon also composes for film and produces other musicians in genres spanning from indie folk to R&B. This August he released Confluence, his most ambitious album to date.
