| When most of us were dreading piano lessons, in the '80s Alex Tobin was picking out his favorite tunes from the radio after school. Years later a post-college restlessness and music-teaching stint inspired the Bostonian to write poignant songs of perseverence, uncertainty and identity. In 2002 Alex recorded his debut EP at Eman Music Studios in Boston,with a follow-up session in 2004. Mixing jazz chords and thought-provoking lyrics, his music echoes a love of Billy Joel, Ben Folds, Elton John, Counting Crows and Train-to name a few. Over the next two years Alex played small clubs in and around Boston like Club Passim, Sky Bar, Kendall Cafe, Ryles, The Asgard, The Burren, and Kirkland Cafe. 2006 brought Alex to the Windy City to work with nonprofits and find a new audience for his songs. Catch him at Uncommon Ground's open mic on Monday nights. For more information, visit their website: http://www.alextobin.com
