Chaye Alexander
Curator of Jazz & Soul Experiences. Designer of Sophisticated Vibes
Chaye Alexander is a curator of experiences—a creative force who crafts sophisticated vibes through music and ambiance with intention.
She is the visionary behind Chayz Lounge, the premier intimate live jazz venue in the heart of West Columbia’s River District, and Chayz Lounge Radio, where soulful grooves stream 24/7. Known for presenting exceptional performances in elegant, upscale settings, Chaye has spent years designing immersive jazz and soul experiences that resonate with audiences and linger long after the final note.
But her influence extends beyond the stage. As a festival consultant, she brings her signature touch to large-scale events that celebrate the richness of jazz, soul, and culture—elevating every element from sound to setting.
Her artistry also unfolds through creative writing and podcasting. On her show Unscripted with Chaye Alexander and through her published reflections on Substack, she shares musings and life lessons drawn from everyday moments. Like the music she curates, her words invite listeners and readers into a space of soulful discovery, inner connection, and inspiration.
Chaye’s work isn’t just about entertainment—it’s about crafting moments that move the soul. Whether through a mix, a mood, or a message, she orchestrates experiences that stir something deeper in those who engage with her world.
