Alex G returns with "Witch" and "Bobby" from upcoming eighth album Rocket - and a new name
Alex G has dropped two new singles, "Witch" and "Bobby", from his freshly announced album Rocket alongside a name change to (Sandy) Alex G.
The prolific Philly-based singer/songwriter is following up his Domino debut Beach Music, which was released in 2015. Rocket, mixed by Jacob Portrait, will be his eighth album since 2010.
Both new tracks show off different sides to Alex G, with "Witch" rife with the psychedelic, lo-fi warmth we've come to know and love (although the baroque-y tones are a nice addition). "Bobby" on the other hand demonstrates G's ability to leap across genres, with country-western tones aplenty.
