Alex Finazzo is a high-energy flatpicker inspired by the works of Doc Watson, Tony Rice, and Dan Crary. His style makes no apologies for his Bluegrass roots, yet has evolved into an eclectic blend of influences rich with heartfelt melodies, impressive technique and a dash of dry wit. He has taken the stage at some of the region’s largest bluegrass festivals and street fairs, performs concerts in intimate venues, and has appeared on live radio and television several times. With an infectious passion for acoustic music, Alex is a crowd-pleasing guitar player that consistently draws audiences in with his dynamic and powerful playing style.
