Alex Kennedy - Guitar and Voice

Act fee up to £495

Alex is one of the rare guitarists/singers who can dip in and out of so many different musical styles. Much more than your average singer/guitarist, he also has a vast repertoire of solo guitar pieces from Classical to Latin and Jazz. Just look at the repertoire list on the right to get an idea of how wide his scope is.

Alex prides himself on offering entertainment that is tailored for your needs; whether it's solo Classical guitar in the background, jazz guitar at a dinner party or singing some classic songs for a wedding, his playing covers so much ground to help shape any event.

After graduating with a BA in Music Performance in 2007, Alex has since spent two years touring the world as a solo artist and as part of an orchestra aboard a 5 star cruise line. Currently living in Surrey, he now works as a professional session musician, teacher and an accomplished solo artist, performing in a number of 5 star hotels in and around London.

Alex has played recent events at the Savoy Hotel and was booked in 2014 for a run of shows at Gatwick airport.
