Alex was born in Latvia, but moved to Israel at the age of two with his family. Once his music career took off, he became immersed with the countrys top musicians. Undoubtedly, this exposure to master musicians had a tremendous effect on Bershadskys development as a performer and composer. Over the period of his career Alex performed alongside the creme de la creme of talent - both in television and radio. Bershadsky also had the privilege to perform at prestigious Israeli events such as The Red Sea Jazz Festival, and Rigas Ritmi - the largest annual rhythmic music festival in the Baltic region.

During the 90s Alex successfully formed two bands; RTZ - a Jazz Fusion group who toured Europe and released an album, and Zonzee - who released two albums; Time Flies (1999) which received great press and much acclaim, and Buzz (2005), featuring legendary guitarist Mike Stern. Bershadsky penned most of the material for both groups, which gave him the opportunity to demonstrate his range and talent.

It wasnt long before Alex crossed the Atlantic to officially represent Israel under the auspice of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs to perform in world famous Jazz venues such as The Blue Note in New York. While in Los Angelas, Bershadsky recorded sessions at Steve Vai's Mother Ship Studio with famous Argentinean guitarist Carina Alfie and producer Neil Citron.

Today, Alex is one of Israels top musicians; he has released his second solo album Anonymous, hes endorsed by Zon Guitars & Aguilar amplification, and working on his next project.
