Singer, songwriter, Alex Davis has been hailed as one of “the top 5 up and coming solo artists” by Music Connection Magazine. Born and raised in Los Angeles, he has been writing music and performing since childhood.
His music was recently placed on numerous TV shows including MTV's "Pranked" and "Bad Dog" on Animal Planet.
A new regular on the LA music scene, Alex performs at such noteworthy venues as The Key Club, The Knitting Factory, and Highways Performance Space. His songwriting, performed on acoustic and electric guitar, has been compared to Elliott Smith's poignant lyricism and the incisive emotionalism of Kurt Cobain. Alex's rock anthem, "Stop" was featured in the 2007 indie black comedy, "Holding Trevor." He has also performed in MTV's 2008 heralded video series, "How do I say this?"
Alex is taking his talents to new levels with an inter-disciplinary performance piece. His stage show, currently titled ALEX DAVIS: MAN OF THE YEAR, incorporates original music performed with a full band, video and spoken narrative in a moving and humor-filled drama based on his life. Alex's performance of his show at the Knitting Factory Brooklyn in February, 2011, produced by Ruth and Stephen Hendel, was rated #1 in Time Out's "Critics' Picks" and #5 on the Advocate's "Hot Sheet". His sophomore EP, Man of the Year, was released in May 2010 to wide acclaim. He's currently working on his highly anticipated forthcoming album, the complete soundtrack to his one-man stage show.
