As a finalist in the BBC Young Jazz Musician of the Year 2020, winner of the Rising Star category in the 2019 British Jazz Awards and nominee in the Parliamentary Jazz Awards 2021 & 2022, Alex is known to be one of the most in-demand and versatile saxophonists to have emerged on the British jazz scene.

Praised for her intelligent ear for harmony and a deep knowledge of repertoire across a variety of styles, Alex’s sound is steeped in the tradition of swing and bebop. Her total respect for the heritage of the music can be heard in a lyrical, melodic approach reminiscent of Scott Hamilton and Lester Young, with strong bop influences of Phil Woods, Cannonball Adderley and Sonny Stitt.
