Alex Wright - Piano/Keyboard

Alex has been playing piano since the age of 3.  While struggling to find a teacher that could match his enthusiasm and drive he mostly learned music on his own until attending the University of Nebraska at Lincoln.  There, Alex studied classical piano with world-renowned pianist Paul Barnes and his wife Ann Chang for 4 years.  Playing both the guitar and piano in many bands from high school through college, Alex decided to make music a career after studying rhythm with Dana Murray, drummer for Brandford Marsalis and Norah Jones. "Studying with Dana really opened my eyes to the tangibility of music as a career and that all dreams are achievable through hard work and perseverance."  Alex then moved to Orange County to begin his professional career and stared teaching at RockStars Music Studios.  In the summer of 2009 Alex went on tour playing keyboards for Disney Recording Artist, Demi Lovato.
