Please join us in welcoming our newest addition to the Altered Stage family - Bass Instructor Alex Piazza! 👏

Alex Piazza was born and raised in Southern Louisiana before making his way north. Son of a church music director/pianist/organist, he began studying and playing music when he was six years old. Alex played double bass, electric bass, trombone and tuba in school music ensembles from middle through high school. Jazz ensembles, orchestras, marching bands and wind symphonies were the first formal settings in which Alex performed. High school saw the creation of personal music projects with friends, playing funk throughout the region. Alex moved to Memphis to attend Rhodes College, and studied music as well as physics. He quickly got involved in the local music scene, playing bass with Ghost Town Blues Band, a staple of the Beale Street Blues circuit. Memphis was where Alex steeped himself in blues, soul, and r&b.

After graduating, Alex moved to Chicago, seeking a larger and more expansive music scene. He attended DePaul University and earned a Master’s degree in Jazz Trombone. While living in Chicago, Alex has performed in myriad settings, from musical theater pits to afro beat ensembles. In February of 2020 he toured the country playing bass with Chicago rock band The JAB. During the Covid shutdown, Alex used his newfound free time to begin writing and recording his personal project Snooz Club. Currently he can be seen backing up Nashville based singer songwriters Phillip Michael Scales and Mike Maimone, and co-leading Bodega Bodega, a Chicago based Brazilian music project. He has toured nationally and internationally on electric bass and trombone, performing in Europe, Canada and US.

We had a last-minute pivot to make when Reggies told us that their club was spoken for this Riot Fest weekend - so we did the gig in-house!
Such a great energy in our space as members took the stage in our Metro room and put on a hell of a show. 🔥
