NEW RELEASE: MY FAVORITE THINGS
A native of Bali, Joey Alexander taught himself to play piano by listening to classic jazz albums his father shared with him.
Due to the lack of jazz education where he lived, Alexander began attending jam sessions with senior musicians. From there, his musical intuition flourished, as did his love of playing jazz. In recognition of his talent, UNESCO invited Alexander to play solo piano in honor of his jazz idol Herbie Hancock, who provided early enthusiastic support to Alexander’s budding career.
The world has taken notice of this phenomenal and exciting pianist with the astonishing technique and soulful sound. Alexander recently signed with Motema Records and his new recording, My Favorite Things, will be released April, 2015....
