Alex Bird is an Actor & Jazz Singer/Songwriter from Toronto, Canada. He was adopted from Romania at the age of 6 weeks old, and came to Canada. Alex's journey started on the musical side of things. Alex literally grew up with the classics. As a young boy he was taken to hang around the Toronto Jazz scene, and had the opportunity to see and meet many of the greats along the way; Tony Bennett, Diana Krall, Ray Brown, Oscar Peterson, Mel Torme, Ray Charles...the list goes on. Without even knowing it, his musical training developed, sitting around at smoky Jazz clubs into the wee small hours of the morning.

With influences spanning from the 20s to the 70s, Alex Bird is a writer of incredible precision and lyrical depth. Working with a killer line up of young musicians, dubbed "The Jazz Mavericks", they are pushing the boundaries of a beautiful tradition and bringing it into a new era.

Alex's all original and award winning debut album, "Whisky Kisses" (2020) has already had a great response. Reviews and airplay have come in from Canada, USA, Mexico, Spain, Belgium, Switzerland, Denmark, Russia, UK, and many others.

Alex and his Jazz Mavericks were also just awarded a grant by the Canada Council for the Arts to fully fund a second album, due for release in 2021.

In April of 2021, Alex joined Jazzcast.ca where he is the host of his own show entitled, "I'm Old Fashioned", a weekly journey to the land of the crooners and torch singers; showcasing the lesser heard gems.

In between singing gigs, Alex also graces the screen with incredible charisma and talent. Alex studied classical theatre acting at George Brown, and film acting at Humber. Most recently, he appeared on CBC's "Frankie Drake Mysteries" as Al Capone, and in September of 2019 Alex made his feature film debut in "IT: Chapter 2" alongside, Bill Hader. Alex will appear as Vincent in the upcoming series "Day Players" (2021)
