Alex Ferreira at Joe's Pub
Singer-songwriter Alex Ferreira was raised in the Dominican Republic, save for some stretches spent in the U.S. A gifted composer, Ferreira moved to Spain to pursue his career, which materialized in a record deal and a string of albums and EPs. In 2015, he released Cinema Tropical, an album that traded his folkier sound for electronics and the following year he formed El Frente Caribe, a project that found Alex reconnecting with the merengue and bachata that blasted from Santo Domingo street corners when he was growing up in the 80s. Currently based in Mexico City, he’s found great success and in 2017 he released his most accomplished album yet, Canapé for which he received a Latin Grammy nomination for “Best New Artist."
