Alex Rhoads
In a world of manufactured music, it is truly refreshing to come across a young artist with genuine talent. In addition to writing songs that are both melodious and meaningful, Alex Rhoads shows promise with her outstanding guitar work and vocal ability.
Beginning piano at age 7, Alex quickly acquired an intense interest in music. However, it wasn't until the age of 14 that she picked up a guitar. She began both performing locally and writing original songs two years later.
While always striving for success in the music business, Alex has never been one to follow the latest trend or fashion. Her songs have great variety, as no two sound alike. Some boast a classic rock or blues influence, while others capture the best of today's modern sound. Her live performances are truly enjoyable as she pairs her original music with a large array of cover songs that please listeners of all ages.
Alex's debut EP entitled Room to Breathe is now available. The album contains 6 tracks.
She is currently working on a new full-length album at Golden Sound Studio in Kensington, MD, which will be released in late 2009.
