Verified profile

Alex Marshall is probably the only guitarist to have a masters degree in biology, specialising in the shape of lizard bones. Having long ceased to measure up scaly skulls, Alex now gives the same focus and experimentation in his career as a musician. Alex has studied music with guidance from teachers Alex Steer, Mac Baker and Graham Mills-Langsdown, who nurtured his love of classical guitar. Since 2015, Alex has performed professionally at countless weddings, parties, corporate functions and concerts. When not performing, music hubs across London employ his service as an experienced educator.
