Alex G has announced a new album. His 10th studio LP, Headlights, arrives July 18 via RCA—marking his official debut on the major label. Leading the record is the new single 'Afterlife,' which comes with a music video directed by Charlotte Rutherford. Watch that below.
The follow-up to 2022's God Save the Animals is billed as a collection of 'absurd twists and mundane milestones' that draw on the same Americana influences as Alex G's previous record.
Later this year, Alex G heads out on a North American tour featuring support from Nilüfer Yanya. The two artists will play shows together in September and October, making stops in a lot of major cities. Before then, Alex G will also perform at summer festivals including Newport Folk Festival and Outbreak Festival.
