You never know, with Alex playing, you might just have to get up and dance. He’s got a contagious energy about him. He’s one of our faves.

Here’s a poetic little description of his sound, "Blending heavy Blues styled vocals with a more Funk, Rock and Folk guitar style, there's an unknown familiarity about Hoffer."

Check out this review:
Saw the Old Fashioneds live last night at Sturdy Shelter Brewing in Batavia. It was the second time I’d seen them perform and they were amazing! Every song a hit, every guitar solo was killer and vocals by Pat and Marco just gorgeous. They are seasoned musicians with such chemistry after playing together for so many years. (25ish maybe? Must confirm) I heard them perform Norah Jones, Elvis, Fleetwood Mac, Tears for Fears, Shania Twain, Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, I even remember some Flashdance, too! Check them out for sure! Great time!
