I accept what is; I love all being as myself

About Me

Born in Manhattan. Moved out to California to the Bay area when I was five. Then on to Montana. Started playing guitar when I was fifteen. Someone taught me three chords so I wrote a song … about Batman, Superman, and Flash Gordon. Went crazy playing while I was young, then toned down as I pursued other avenues, work, and study. But still kept playing on the side. Got back into it a few years ago, collecting my songs, writing new ones and practicing and playing pretty much full time. Lots of fun, hope you enjoy.

Here are my CD's:

All of my songs are available on Apple iTunes and zoomoozik.com/alexcolvin
