Alex began playing at the age of 12, studying classical guitar with a private teacher for three years. After discovering modern fingerstyle guitar online, he embarked on a self-taught journey to master the style.

In 2016, his video cover of Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" received more than 30,000,000 views on Facebook, firmly establishing his presence on the international guitar scene. The following year, his rendition of George Michael's "Careless Whisper" gained more than 80,000,000 views across Facebook and YouTube within a single month. Since then, Misko's YouTube channel has experienced exponential growth, now exceeding 1,000,000 subscribers, and he was named Acoustic Guitarist of the Year by MusicRadar (UK).
