InfluencesALEX BURNS - solo & trio
Alex's' performances cover the broad range of American string styles from blues and early jazz to Hawaiian steel and originals. He plays resophonic guitars, ukulele and harmonica with deceptive ease, born from years playing the circuit of festivals, pubs and clubs. From hard driving rhythms to laid-back subtlety, his brilliant technique shines through. Added to his outstanding musicianship are his impressive vocals. Hailing from Glasgow known for its hard living and great blues vocalists (Frankie Miller, Maggie Bell, Alexis Korner), his earthy vocals easily adapt from rough and ready blues through to heartfelt gospel. Alex's live shows are an exuberant treat with his wide array of material and engaging, good-humoured manner. His much sought after recordings manage to capture the power of the live show without losing any of the clarity of a studio setting which ensure listeners yearn for more.

Hey Alex! Thanks so much for coming to my Launch! I am only getting over it now! It was such a great night for me and though I was pretty nervous it was great to be playing again! We are having a farewell party on the 15th so please come round and bring your guitar as there will have to be a big jam! Big love, Deb
