Alex Keren’s music is a thrilling tale of discovery that has resulted in a unique voice and style reflecting the diversity of musical, artistic and cultural influences, which he has made his own.
Born in Paris to a British mother and a Peruvian father. Alex Keren grew up between France and England in a thoroughly artistic and multicultural environment. Alex Keren points to his discovery of blues music, and particularly the music of Jimi Hendrix, when he was a teenager as the event that changed everything for him. Although he was already an accomplished drummer, he taught himself guitar and never let go of his instrument again since.
. His first studio consisted of two tape decks he would switch between to add additional layer of vocals, drums or guitar. These homemade recordings and numerous cellar jam sessions taught him the value of experimentation, blending musical styles and collaboration with other musicians.
In 1999 Alex Keren began playing and singing at venues in Soho, Brixton and Camden with his band ‘Brothers on the Slide’ and collaborated on projects with a wide variety of artists, including the world-famous musicians and dancers from stage sensation STOMP. Having studied music and sound engineering at prestigious London schools, Alex Keren began working as a producer, composer and sound engineer for other artists, first in Bristol and then at FiveMusic studio in Paris. His credits range from dance to R&B and world, and even to children’s music, with several international successes on SonyBMG and Warner Music. Alex Keren has played and sung on releases by Touré Kunda, The Lone Monkee, The Snatch and DJ Richard Grey.
His solo debut album released in 2010 and signed to the record label Underdog Records, has received a fair amount of success, playlisted on national Radio such as Virgin radio, Europe 1, Fip, France Inter, along with national TV.
