Bio / Background

By the time Alex was 8 years old, he could play Rachmaninov on the piano with his toes while singing traditional Romanian gypsy folk songs and playing the Hawaiian pineapple gourd ukulele with his free hands without missing a beat. At the age of 12, he became enamored with the guitar. So much so that he subsequently lost all of his other prodigious musical abilities with above said instruments, although he can still sing with a mighty gust of wind while stomping his right foot to the groove that his ten metacarpals can create on a guitar.

People listening to his lyrical ramblings and vocal croonings have been known to cry for no apparent reason as well as laugh at very inappropriate times for weeks thereafter.

His first cd, Magnifying Glass was released on Painted Sun Records in 2000. The album along with dynamic live performances helped Alex gain wide popularity in the NACA college circuit. He has performed at colleges throughout the midwest and east coast.
