Alex G - the Philadelphia singer, songwriter, and producer Alex Giannascoli - returns today with new song “Blessing.” The track was produced by Giannascoli and his longtime collaborator Jacob Portrait and comes with an accompanying video directed by Zev Magasis.
Today Alex G also announces an extensive fall North American headlining tour that includes Los Angeles’ The Wiltern and multiple nights at NYC’s Brooklyn Steel, Chicago’s Thalia Hall, and Boston’s Paradise Rock Club and caps off with hometown shows at Philadelphia’s Union Transfer. Tickets will be available this Thursday, May 26 at 10am local time HERE. Alex G will also open select East Coast dates for Bright Eyes next month. All dates are below.
Alex G’s last album House of Sugar was named one of the best albums of 2019 by Pitchfork, The Guardian, GQ, American Songwriter, Stereogum, Consequence, and Esquire, who called it “a layered, ever-changing work from an artist who seems to have no limits in taking his music anywhere his imagination can go.”
This spring Giannascoli released his first ever film score for Jane Schoenbrun’s We’re All Going to the World’s Fair, earning praise from outlets including the LA Times, who wrote, “Alex G’s melancholic guitar-centric score hypnotizes.”
