HELLO there, you! Thanks for taking the time to learn more about Alex Crosby, the musician. I'm a pianist, music director, and singer based in NYC. I also play some percussion and accordion. I've played for Broadway musicals, churches, cruise lines, universities, and more. I love being in a room making music with others, and can also have a blast on my own in a bar with my voice and an upright. Whatever the setting, I'm passionate about facilitating welcoming spaces that encourage artists to have fun, try new things, and take creative risks without judgment.
I was born and raised in The City Beautiful by a Cuban mom and Canadian dad. I'm not fluent in Spanish but I will throw down every time I hear "Azúcar!"
I’m a dual-citizen in Spain and dream of working abroad. Perhaps a Madrid transfer of a musical, teaching artist work, a resident musician slot at a hotel, or a possibility I haven’t dreamt up yet.
I’ve loved these hats and many more. And I’m excited to see what new ones might surprise me. Reach out if you might like to make music together!
