Alex Bird is a Toronto based jazz singer, songwriter and actor. Bird, along with his songwriting partner and pianist Ewen Farncombe, has been nominated for 2 JUNO awards for “Best Vocal Jazz Album”: first in 2022 for “You Are The Light And The Way” and most recently in 2024 for “Songwriter”. Their most recent project, “Casanova, Bossa Nova, Lover Man” is a collaboration with Latin Grammy Award winner Cheo and will be available this summer.
