Alex Mendenall

I play an eclectic mix of soul, lounge, and jazz and support my guitar and vocals with dynamic foot percussion.

My music is high-energy and has been compared to Allen Stone and Steely Dan. In addition to originals, I play a

wide range of covers; nearly everything from Van Morrison to The Black Keys. I’ve toured the US extensively and have

 played events like the Beaver Island Music Festival, Traverse City Film Festival, Holler Fest, Dunesville Music Festival,

East Lansing Summer Concert Series, Roots on the River, and the Ann Arbor Summer Festival.

I have worked with local and nationally touring acts like The Accidentals, Flint Eastwood, The Ragbirds, The Appleseed Collective, Tyler Hilton, Ryan Cabrera, and Hayley Kiyoko. My newest album, “Into the Hinterland” was nominated for a WYCE Jammie for Best Jazz Album and takes a deep dive into soul, folk, lounge, and Latin inspired jazz.
