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. Alex has performed 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 musician that consistently impresses audiences with his dynamic and virtuosic playing style.
“A young, 6-string flat picker by the name of Alex Finazzo takes the stage and picks his guitar effortlessly while the crowd watches in awe. I look around and people have smiles on their faces while they tap their feet. They are mesmerized and engaged.”
