Alexa Wiley with special guest Robert Owen

About Alea Wiley

Alexa Wiley & the Wiley Coyotes Trio is a stripped down presentation that highlights Alexas evocative vocals and poetic songs. Alexa Wiley, Bret Malmquist and Dale Turnbull (aka Wiley Coyotes) have played together in Portland, OR for over 8 years as well as together in Alexas band: Alexa Wiley & the Wilderness. Paired with Bret Malmquist's guitar virtuosity and Dale Turnbull's steady bass, the trio creates a superb sonic lyricism that might be described as wild metaphorical music that resonates down to your roots. There is also something sly and clever about their particular wiley wisdom!

Well received at McMenamins venues and local pubs throughout Oregon, Alexa Wiley & the Wiley Coyotes are gaining musical momentum by winning new admirers and delighting existing fans.

"Alexa has purposefully searched out that which is unpredictable and wild about herself. And it does mean taking a chance of getting lost in the wilderness of oneself. Its an art. Alexa suggests we take a chance taking that trip into the wild and unknown. Inessa
