(Sandy) Alex G has shared a new song and video, “Hope”. The track is lifted off his new LP, House of Sugar, due out July 19th via Domino Records. Along with the news, (Sandy) Alex G has also announced a headline tour through North America, the UK, and Europe, beginning in October, shortly after his previously-announced Lollapalooza performance and aftershow.

Alex Giannascoli, AKA:(Sandy) Alex G began writing the songs that would ultimately become House of Sugar in the fall of 2017. Whereas with earlier efforts, such as 2011’s self-released Winner or the landmark 2014 release DSU, music was written and recorded at a prolific clip, with these new songs Giannascoli approached the recording process with a newfound deliberateness, concentrating on a smaller collection of songs and laboring over each with more focus and acuity than ever before.

For House of Sugar, Giannascoli worked closely with Jacob Portrait (Unknown Mortal Orchestra) who mixed both Rocket and 2015’s Beach Music, and helped to balance each of House of Sugar’s dense, multi-faceted tracks.
