About Me

Alex is drummer, who got through a degree in Jazz Performance at Sydney Conservatorium and is currently keeping busy playing music he finds interesting. Most of the music is jazz, improvised music or something along those lines.

He co-leads Trio Apoplectic, which has toured extensively in 2006-09 and released two albums, "Trio Apoplectic" through Jazzgroove Records and "Sofia" through Rufus Records. Other projects include The Splinter Orchestra , The Vampires , Marc Hannaford Trio, and Chiba.

Alex has also been fortunate to work on odd occasions with some of his favourite musicians, including Australian jazz legends Bernie McGann and Warwick Alder, Sudanese musician Asim Gorashi, saxophonists Kris Wanders, Jeff Henderson and Peter Farrar, and guitarist Dave Brown.

Alex also teaches kids and organises tours, concerts and festivals because he believes in Australian creative music and thinks there should be more of it.
