As a solo artist, Alex released her debut album Be Still My Soul in 2013—a deeply personal collection of traditional hymns and original compositions. She has since collaborated with acclaimed musicians including Jenny Oaks Baker, Kurt Bestor, and Camille Nelson, and returned to her theatrical roots in the Irish-American musical Find Your Way Home.

Her solo performances have included appearances with the R.T.E.
