About
Alex is a young multi-instrumentalist singer / songwriter with an old soul and a knack for folk in a generation where he believes music is too cluttered with technology to the point where the purpose has been somewhat forgotten. Alex is currently collaborating with classic rock vocalist, Allie Richardson, with whom he found a musical mate that shares the same vision and drive to create and play organically made music from the heart. Together, Alex and Allie have embarked on performing around the NYC Tr-State area as an acoustic duo, sometimes joined by other guests, and delivering a powerful and soulful sound consisting of renditions saluting artists like Peter Paul and Marry, Neil Young, CCR, and Talking Heads among others. The duo is now also testing and performing original material as well as they continue their journey and strive to pick up other like minded musical mates along the way to join the band.
Alex is a native of New Jersey, living between NYC and Boston where he studied jazz piano at Berklee College of Music. He self-released his first EP, "A Plate Of Oysters,” in 2017, his first LP on vinyl, “The Main Course” in 2019 which is orchestrated and played with a full band, and his first album in 2020 during the coronavirus pandemic called “Lock-Downers and the Inevitable” His music is also available digitally on Spotify, iTunes, YouTube, etc. Alex is also working towards releasing a work of original piano compositions as he continues to improve at thinking outside of the box in a melting pot of diversity. You can follow Alex’s work and collaboration with Allie on his YouTube channel where he regularly releases videos of original work, renditions, and overall fun stuff!
