Alexz Johnson (Born on November 4th, 1986, in New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada) is never quite what you'd think: she is always, instead, a surprise.

Filthy Pedro

Originating from an unpronounceable rural outback of Anglesey, and rumoured to possess mysterious druid-like powers, Filthy Pedro would be the first to admit the limits of his musical talents. But antifolk isn't about technical prowess, it's about telling your story, with whatever musical accompaniment you can muster. And with just his voice, guitar and considerable charm, Filthy's songs explore his obsessions with ancient history, sex and the inner workings of libraries with wit, humour and surprising poignancy.
