Join the Museum of Jewish Heritage and singer-songwriter Alex Blue for a concert followed by an audience Q&A.
Alex Blue (she/her) is a Jewish-Mexican folk singer-songwriter from Aurora, CO. With a diverse range of influences spanning from Fleetwood Mac and Joni Mitchell to Shaun Colvin, Patty Griffin, and Gaby Moreno, Alex’s music carries echoes of nostalgia intertwined with contemporary storytelling. Her unique blend of folk songwriting and pop-inspired melodies sets her songs apart. As a neurodivergent artist, she brings a unique perspective to her songwriting, exploring her inner world as a landscape of its own. Her most recent record, “Kin,” orbits themes of family, grief, diaspora, and queer motherhood.
Alex’s strengths as a songwriter—poetic lyricism, truthful storytelling, stirring melodies—are integrated into an artistry that is authentic and transfixing. She writes, performs, and produces music that is grounding, transparent, and connective; that doesn’t demand attention but invites listeners into an experience that is gentle and generous.
This event forms part of Carnegie Hall’s Nuestros sonidos festival.
