Alexa Ray Joel is an undeniable member of true American rock and roll royalty: her performance training occurred at the hands of a modern master and a mother of otherworldly grace. Alexa is a brilliant young woman whose birth was well documented by nearly every major press outlet. As a world-traveled toddler, she even made Gorbachev giggle! Now Alexa is working to create her own destiny. Her songs reveal a charismatic dreamer and musical communicator of rare vulnerability whose talent is imbued with a blend of raw city energy and the peaceful tranquility of the Long Island Sound. Thousands have already been enthralled by the surprising performances that leave little doubt that Alexa Ray Joel will be an integral part of an enduring American legacy. Her songs are composed of equal parts compassion, truth, charity, and humor. One listen assures anyone of the wit and wisdom of this unique young woman.

Alexa writes her own music without the benefit of Grammy Award-winning songwriting teams or world famous producers. Her first demo CD Sketches sold thousands of copies at independent music retailers all over the country and at Target stores. The subject matter consists of mostly positive but sometimes scathing reflections of the people and places she has encountered along the way. Alexa has honed her skills as a performer in a wide range of settings. She has traveled to seedy, smoky Midwestern bars all the way to the Waldorf Astoria in NYC. At twenty one, Alexa has already completed two North American tours and has performed at dozens of charity events including benefits for the American Heart and Lung Association and the Jimmy V Foundation.

Everyone has a story and Alexa is all set to become a master storyteller who shares an uncommon empathy with this weary world. She inspires hope because she is the completion of the American dream: talented, charming, intelligent, and whimsical with a magic on the keys matched by great pitch. All of these accomplishments were made on her own without benefit of a record label. This tiny dynamo makes the big boys quiver in their board rooms because she’s doing what very few artists, especially females, have ever done: she’s playing the game by her own rules. In doing her own thing, Alexa has garnered the attention of music industry sharks and Hollywood darlings. Alexa has Botticelli beauty to go along with the strong stage presence and the ethereal aesthetic of a Woody Allen muse.

Alexa takes her causes to heart and has made it a point to become an iconoclast in a world sickened by the venomous media attention assigned to anyone who dares venture into the limelight. She has appeared in a number of national press outlets, including: Rolling Stone, Billboard, People, Glamour Magazine, and on a number of television and radio shows ranging from The Today Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, and XM Satellite programs. Alexa has renounced the poisons of an out of control tabloid press and defended herself against the attacks of malevolent bloggers who are determined to blacken the world with negativity. Alexa Ray is bringing the world a new addiction in the form of upbeat tunes with beautiful melodies.

Ladies and Gentlemen: Please welcome to the stage, New York’s very own: Miss Alexa Ray Joel!! (-) collapse
