About
Over the last decade, flutist, vocalist, and composer Alex Hamburger has been creating her own musical direction. Her acclaimed sophomore album, What If? (Unit Records), blends acoustic and electric textures to explore transformation and perception, while her upcoming duo release, Catalog of Dreams (Challenge Records), with Brazilian pianist/composer José Luiz Martins, takes an intimate and creative approach to music that has shaped them.
Her music has been praised by All About Jazz, Jazzthing, Bandcamp, and more as "allowing the listener be immersed within the blurred lines and the harmonious coexistence of light and dark that ultimately remind us all of the interconnectedness of our shared human experience."
Alex continues to tour across the U.S., Europe, and South America with her own project, and performs as a sidewoman for many artists, including most recently having co-produced Brazilian pianist José Luiz Martins' Odyssey Mixtape, winner of the DCJazzPrix.
She remains deeply connected to the DC music community as Managing Director of CapitalBop, founder of My Body My Festival (a fundraiser for the DC Abortion Fund), and as a member of the GRAMMY Recording Academy DC Chapter and the Strathmore Artist in Residence class.
