Bio
Music has led Alex Seel from Devon to London to Ireland and back to London again. Through his wanderings, Alex has picked up a beautifully crafted, rootsy song-writing style with thought-provoking lyrics and finger-picked acoustic guitar trait. A contemporary twist on the British folksinger/guitarist, he has a growing reputation as a solo performer, having performed around the UK, Ireland, Italy, Germany and Spain (see live dates here).
Alex is excited to announce the release of his new album “All Sails To The Sun” 29 Sept 2023.
“…absolutely outstanding!” - Frank Hennessy - Celtic Heartbeat - BBC Wales
“Brilliant, and I mean the word brilliant, new album” - Steve Clarke - Strange Brew
“Superb album” - From Albion and Beyond - kuar.org - Arkansa, US
“Across All Sails To The Sun, Seel gives voice to both his folk and rock influences to equal effect - blending them into his own personal musical expression…these heavily textured rock arrangements beautifully counterpoint the more traditional and folk-based songs. The contrast in tone heightens each style's effectiveness” ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ - RNR Magazine

Previous touring collaborations have included The Songwriter's Circle Tour (www.circletour.co.uk), organised with singer-songwriter Greg Hancock, and as a duo with virtuoso instrumentalist Jon Sanders.
