Alex Ferreira

Whether holding an acoustic guitar or tinkering with a synthesizer, Dominican artist Alex Ferreira champions the Latin American song form with a generous outpouring of emotion. At heart, he’s a classic romantic, yet he delights in his own restless urge to experiment. This creative impulse mirrors the cities he has called home, Santo Domingo, New York, Madrid, and now Mexico City. Over the years, Ferreira has built a wildly eclectic catalog, blurring musical borders and traditions. His work has earned Latin GRAMMY nominations for Best New Artist (2018) and Best Singer-Songwriter Album (2022) for his latest record En Lo Que Llega La Primavera. His albums—praised by Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, and KCRW— move fluidly between Caribbean folk, electro-pop, alternative music, and poetic songwriting.
