The latest release by lo-fi extraordinaire Alex G, his first since 2015’s Beach Music, is an exploration into the folksier side of his usual sound. The gentle strumming guitar and and his Elliot Smith-esque crooning, accompanied by the twanging fiddle and delicate harmonization present a much subtler and melodic alternative to his other new single, the slightly psychedelic “Witch”. Both singles are featured on his new album Rocket, which is set to be released in May. Bobby highlights the layered talent of Alex G, and gives us a glimpse into the vast scope of his musical repertoire.
