ALEX KEHAYASAlex has added bass guitar to his repertoire in recent years. Largely self taught Alex enjoys the ability to help provide the percussion backbone that provides the foundation that music is built upon. Alex has taken guitar lessons for 5 years at Alpha Music from the late Scott Bailey and currently from Bernie Lee of the Jesse Chong Band. Alex has also participated in the School of Rock summer program at Norfolk Academy directed by Steve Archer of the Blue Lords for the past 4 years.

Musically speaking Alex is an “old soul” enjoying the sounds of classic rock bands including Led Zeppelin, The Grateful Dead, The Beatles, Rolling Stones and many of the older R & B and Funk bands. He not only hammers down the bass line, but he follows a vision of not what a song is, but of what it can be. Alex is also an accomplished guitarist.

Alex has performed with local artists Rendition as well as artists on the Outer Banks. He has long term mu-sical goals not limited to performance but of perhaps becoming a luthier to impart his vision of what guitars should be.

Alex is a sophomore enrolled in the Global Studies Academy at Tallwood High School in Virginia Beach and the Governor’s School for the Arts at Old Dominion University, Norfolk, VA.

Tyler also plays guitar and has had the privilege of being instructed by Jay Rakes.
