"I had the pleasure of producing Deep River for both a large student audience at the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco and a small intimate cabaret setting at The 222 in Healdsburg. Alex’s warmth, expertise, showmanship, and knowledge both entertained and inspired the crowd. His mix of humor, passionate vocals, and deep respect for the subject captivated audiences at every age, leaving them with new-found information and context for American music."

“Alex will give you chills when he sings and will mesmerize you as a performer.”
~ Pamela Casey-Lewis, Music Minister, San Leandro Church of Christ
"Alex's rich voice and unique arrangements of traditional Negro spirituals, interspersed with stories and historical context showing how this simple music, borne out of intense paid and tragedy, essentially gave rise to just about every other form of American music. He packed the house at Unity and there was universal acclaim for this fabulous show."
~ Tyler Snortum-Phelps, Music Minister, The Unity Center of Walnut Creek
“Alex Taite is a whirlwind of a talent firing on all cylinders -- all of them working musically for the common good."
~ Dr. Mark Sumner, former director of UC Choral Ensembles, Berkeley (1997-2022); Director of Music, First Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco (1998-present)
