In episode 2 (an Audioboo podcast) , I talk with Neil Alexander on how he not only plans to take his synth rig “off the grid”, but also powering his gigs with a solar array/solar generator on a haul-able trailer. This is TRULY a ground-breaking idea that’s actually doable. Neil says “imagine the freedom of touring like this. You’de no longer even need clubs to play in. You could set up in a field and have at it”. I predict Neil will be featured here many times in the future as his story unfolds.

Neil Alexander is jazz pianist, synthesist, and composer living in up-state New York. You can find more about Neil at http://nailmusic.com and of course, you might want to follow him on Twitter here
