Brett Eldredge Introduces Xander, His Alter Ego

For people in the public eye, getting around in public without anyone noticing can be quite difficult, but Brett Eldredge seems to have found a way.

“Xander” is Eldredge’s alter ego and makes appearances on Eldredge’s Snapchat.

“The people out there that aren’t on Snapchat probably don’t know it’s me, but some do,” Eldredge admitted to PEOPLE. “I just keep moving really fast. I’ll drink a beer with them and then I’ll run.”

While the blond wig with crazy, curly hair may seem to stand out, the “Lose My Mind” singer insists that fans don’t always recognize him.’

“Xander has hippie hair and doesn’t look anything like me when I put the wig on,” Eldredge explained. “People will ask me about my hair while wearing a T-shirt [with my name on it].”

 

But when does Xander make an appearance? “He shows up when I’m drinking,” Eldredge joked. “Wigs are the funniest thing, no matter who you are. You throw a wig on somebody and you’ll laugh your ass off all the time. I got my dad to put a wig on and go into the crowd with me.”

 

Xander will even join the Illinois native when he hits the road with Thomas Rhett for CMT On Tour: Brett Eldredge & Thomas Rhett – Suits & Boots. “Oh yeah,” Eldredge said with a laugh. “He’s going to be packing a bag!”

The Suits & Boots Tour kicks off Oct. 29 in New York City.
