ALEX G
Roundhouse, NW1 8EH , [Venue Details]lex G is the stage alias of Alex Giannascoli, a singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist who built his reputation with intimate lo-fi pop that combines strong melodic sensibilities with a ragged, impulsive-sounding performance style.
He is also known for diversions into recording experiments and noise. After releasing a dozen combined albums and EPs on his own or on smaller labels, his Domino Records debut, 2015’s Beach Music, landed on Billboard’s Heatseekers chart. Even as he began working with collaborators, he still retained his individual turbulent style while expanding his sound, and working in studios. In his teens, the Pennsylvania native, wrote and recorded music in his bedroom. He released his home-recorded label debut, DSU, in 2014 via Orchid Tapes. In 2016 his guitar work appeared on the Frank Ocean albums Endless and Blond. His second Domino record, Rocket, was released in May 2017. Still home-recorded, it was a more collaborative effort, featuring members of his touring band, and reached #23 on Billboard’s Independent Albums chart. Later that year, he appeared on-stage with Ocean amid headlining tour dates.
