Alex Creighton on SoundBetter

I've worked with Neyla Pekarek of the Lumineers, I've played countless sold out shows and play guitar in touring indie pop band Cherokee Social. I Graduated with a degree in music from MSU Denver in Commercial Songwriting and in Jazz performance. My specialty is adding interesting and dynamic guitar to pop and edm music. I am able to self record.

My name is Alex Creighton. I am musician from Denver, Colorado. My primary instrument is guitar but I can also play Bass, Piano, and vocals. Apart from that I have Produced and Engineered songs for myself and other artists to a professional standard. My favorite thing to do is play live which I have done plenty of this past year all around the country. I have been playing music since I was 6 years old and love that I get to do it as much as I do.

I can play almost any style on guitar and keys but I specialize in Pop music. Whatever your track needs I have the training, knowledge, and experience to bring it to the next level.

I've been able to work with great musicians such as Neyla Pekarek of the Lumineers and open for bands like Private Island, Snotty Nose Rez Kids, Jhariah, etc. and have even been able to ply the same festivals as bands like Beach House and Faye Webster.

I am an engineer/producer as well so I am able to record myself and send High quality audio to you very quickly.
