ALEX CHUDNOVSKY
The most popular classical music artist you’ve never heard…
Hailing from Russia and now Melbourne based, composer and guitarist Alex Chudnovsky could very well be the most popular classical artist you’ve never heard of before.
When you think of classical guitar, the internet is probably not the first thing that springs to mind. And yet, over the past 5 years, Alex Chudnovsky has utilised the internet, in particular You Tube, to spread the word about his playing and to promote his music in a way that no other Australian classical musician has ever done.
Since starting his own You Tube channel, Alex has attracted over 6000 subscribers to watch videos that he has uploaded of himself playing tracks from his debut album, The Journey. In total, Alex has had over 2.1 million video views. A staggering amount for any musical act, let alone a classical guitarist playing original, contemporary compositions. In overall subscriptions Alex is currently the number 12 ranked music act on You Tube Australia.
In true interactive style, Alex’s fans often upload videos of themselves playing their own version of his compositions, a practice that he actively encourages by making the music notation available to them. And now that his album The Journey is available physically as well as digitally, the phenomenon can continue spreading.
Alex will undertake a range of small festivals/venues and other appearances leading to his official launch in summer.

It's been great to be involved with soundslikecafe and it has certainly raised our profile "down under". We have sold many CDs to Aus and NZ since being involved with you guys, so that's great. Also, the hits on our web site from your part of the world has risen
dramatically as well - so many thanks.
Jen Garcia - Manager Anthony Garcia
"I found myself at Maple 3 and as I entered up the path way I could hear some great music playing. I got to the counter and asked the guy standing there "Who is this playing"? He said "It is Sounds Like Cafe, do you know it? It is the best thing to ever happen to me and my business". He then proceeded to tell me about the compilation and handed me a brochure. I told him who I was and that Anthony was on it, much to his astonishment. He was RAVING about your compilation CD. Then as I was waiting for the food and coffees, on came the track, and it was great to hear it in the context of a cafe........I think it works really well! "
Abby Edwards (Manager: Emily Davis)
"Soundlikecafe has helped Emily Davis as a solo acoustic artist make valuable connections with Cafes across Australia whilst touring. On our National tour with the full band this year, Emily played to a number of cafes who are on the Soundslikecafe listing. Playing at these cafes helps make the touring process financially viable and dynamic - by playing in different spaces and exposing Emily's music to people who may not have access through standard live music venues. You can do a cafe gig in the morning or lunchtime and still going to your night gig whilst on tour. Soundslikecafe has helped us to explore a completely different avenue when it comes to presenting live and acoustic music on tour. We are sure that the connection with these cafes is going to continue over many years helping them grow the creative and music based side of their businesses and adding another string to our bow."
