Alexis Ward

  • Biography

    Raised in a musical family, Alexis Ward took up the classical guitar as a means of participating in living room jam sessions. The versatility of the guitar and a love of singing led her to songwriting and eventually her debut album, “Everyone’s Home” (2020) which was released when she was eighteen. The album was a collaboration with her siblings that employed their classical training and artistry to explore aspects of humanness. During her undergraduate studies at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, Alexis co-founded a 501(c)(3) theater company for middle schoolers called Suncatcher Players, which produces original theatrical works written in collaboration with students and teachers (suncatcherplayers.com). Alexis led her students in the writing of two musicals (Villianville and The Legacy of Deadfeather) as well as music for several original plays. Her latest project is a commissioned full-length album co-written with her sister, Bella Ward, who is pursuing a classical violin career. The recording of this project is scheduled for December 2022.
