Alex Monk
Alex Monk is a musician and producer based in London. Monk uses thestructure of song to convey a range of emotions and moods,combined
with a spirit that allows sounds and melodies to evolve through the
essence of the moment. Live performances lend themselves to a range of sound sources and instruments though the voice often lies at the centre; sometimes employed only as an instrument itself. He has
released three albums and last record 'The Safety Machine' received
wide acclaim upon its release in 2011 and the next release is due in
September on Smeraldina Rima.
