40 West Market Street
Red Hook, NY See Map |
Born in the suburbs of DC to an accomplished local photographer and an internationally seasoned vocalist/pianist, Aleksis Bilmanis was primed for success as a singer/songwriter from the womb.
Insightful and uplifting, his music speaks volumes yet retains a playful and catchy quality that will keep you listening for hours. His songs possess a hypnotic and earthy intelligence; a homage to his Latvian heritage.
Years of performing in the Mid- Atlantic Region lend a clear sophistication to the unique energy he creates at every show. Whether he is performing with a full band or is standing alone in the spotlight with his guitar, you will be moved; mind, body and soul.
This year marks the official release of "World Around" thru Aleksis' own label Sveiks Records, adding yet another accolade to this extremely talented and resourceful independent performing and recording artist.
