ALEX WALSH
Pop, Rock, Roots, Acoustic/Electric, Solo & Band,
Originals, Covers

“Alex Walsh makes music the old-fashioned way -- warm and witty and straight from the heart.”
   - Joel Selvin, San Francisco Chronicle

 “A very distinct sound. Some of it kind of George Harrison like I thought. Some totally original in that I have never heard anything quite like it...”
   - Country Joe McDonald, Singer/Songwriter

Alex Walsh is intriguing rock -- fleshy and nervy roots rock that defies replicas. His sound might be a little like Elvis Costello's, T. Rex's, and the Replacement's, but his own arrangements of hooky lyrics makes it lock, stock and barrel uninfringeable. He's not going to take you to yoga camp or church. His attitude, like a steel-reinforced road weary loop track, explains why he's won Best Performance from the WCS and is one of the best songwriters to emerge out of the San Francisco songwriter’s scene at Cafe Du Nord, Tongue & Groove, and The Red Devil Lounge. -- bio observations courtesy of Maria Halyna

Alex Walsh plays original pop blues rock either as a solo artist or with his band, The Alex Walsh Band. He can throw a few Beatles songs into the mix, a few pop gems, and some obscure blues tunes, but it all sounds like Alex.

Solo Acoustic Song Samples:

Bad, Bad, Leroy Brown (Jim Croce) mp3

Strawberry Fields Forever (Beatles) mp3
