Elderbrook

Alexander Kotz (born 20 December 1992),[1] known professionally as Elderbrook, is an English electronic musician and DJ.

[3] Kotz began to use the moniker Elderbrook after finishing university and debuted with the track and EP of the same name, Could.

His debut extended play featured a number of tracks that went on to garner over a million views on SoundCloud and similar platforms.

[9] Toward the end of 2016, it was announced that Elderbrook would be the official remixer of "Rockabye" by British band Clean Bandit.

The song performed well during the summer months as a club anthem in many places throughout Europe and the United States, before becoming a chart single later in the year.

The event was live streamed exclusively for fans and ended with his and CamelPhat’s Grammy Nominated song “Cola.”[16] Elderbrook’s sophomore album, Little Love, was released on March 21, 2023.

We all lived through such a bizarre and difficult few years during the pandemic but I was given the greatest gift and biggest responsibility of all in that time, and it seemed only fitting that my second album be a dedication to that, to them, my little loves.”[19] The opening tracks “Just Like Us” and “I Need You” discuss universal struggles and the ways they can bring people together.
