Alex Comaish | LIVE at Café René

Hailing from the southwest of England, Alex combines the energy of folk-punk with jangling indie rock and an instinct for memorable folk-pop hooks. His witty, heartfelt songs explore long journeys, complicated relationships and the strange details that make ordinary experiences extraordinary. Whether playing with his band, or using loop pedals and layered harmonies, he creates a full, immersive live show that gets you singing along to love songs about monkeys with typewriters, or the age-old problem of being on the end of a drunk dial.
For fans of anyone from Frank Turner to Maisie Peters, from Crowded House to the Gaslight Anthem. An energetic live performer, he’s played nearly 100 shows, including appearances at The Fleece, The Louisiana, 93 Feet East and Camden Assembly. He has scored Support from BBC Bristol, and received glowing reviews from numerous online publications including CLOUT magazine. His latest EP, Damp Streets, was released in July 2026.
