Ever since Alex Merk began writing music in 2020, he has found composing to be the most special part of being a musician. He has also been particularly fascinated with music written by other drummers, finding such music to be a unique insight into the possibilities of ensemble writing. For this show, Alex will highlight some of his favorite music written by his drumming heroes of past and present, such as Max Roach, Philly Joe Jones, Louie Bellson, Tony Williams, Victor Lewis, and Brian Blade, as well as his own compositions inspired by these drummer composers.Alex will be joined onstage by his new band Agency. This band consists of musicians who share a strong musical bond and are dedicated to performing all facets of music at the highest level possible.
