Alex G

Before the live recording "Alex G - Nintendo 64 LIVE (The Skin Cells)" on September 14, 2011, Alex G had already established his musical footprint with his album "Race" released in 2010. This album was significant as it showcased his unique blend of lo-fi, indie rock that would come to characterize his sound. By the time of this live performance, Alex was in a phase of growth, trying to further his audience reach while staying true to his DIY roots. Interestingly, the performance captures that raw energy of early Alex G, a sound that comes through despite the video's audio imperfections—the charm of live recordings, right? Also, it’s worth noting how his ability to perform intimate, yet innovative music live has since attracted a loyal fan base, highlighting his evolution as an artist since these early days.
