THE ALEX PIPES BAND

  • Birkenhead RSA Recreation Drive Auckland, Auckland, 0626 New Zealand (map)

The Alex Pipes Band

New Zealand jazz guitarist, composer and producer, Alex Pipes, is a sonic artist providing a strong voice for the next generation of instrumental music.

A now familiar face on the Auckland music scene, Alex’s creative vision is built on infectious house and funk grooves, catchy hooks, and transcendent improvisation, with some tunes morphing into full-blown fusion displays of virtuosic ability, and even moody ambient soundscapes.

Join Alex Pipes at the Auckland Jazz and Blues Club as he leads his band through a set of unreleased music (plus a few crowd favourites), igniting the fuse as each composition takes off on an improvisational journey. He's joined by a stellar line up of local
musicians.
