Jose Gonzalez will be appearing at The Gramercy Theater on the 27th and 28th of September, and then crossing the river to play the Music Hall of Williamsburg on the 29th. Hot on the heels of his forthcoming release IN OUR NATURE, due out September 25th on Mute Records.
Also look for the upcoming exclusive Jose Gonzalez feature in the next issue of Sentimentalist Magazine #26 on newsstands and online September.
In the four years since the Swedish release of Gonzalez’ debut VENEER (2005), his global profile has grown steadily as he played multiple worldwide tours, performing for audiences in Europe, Asia, South America, and North America. Veneer also went Platinum in Sweden and Great Britain, Double Platinum in Ireland and Gold in Australia and New Zealand.
His foray into the United States began in March of 2006 at SXSW, where he won over audiences and critics, setting the stage for extensive US Touring, as well as festivals such as Central Park Summer Stage in New York City, Bumbershoot, and Austin City Limits among others.
Gonzalez, like his music, is deceptively unassuming, studied and powerful. He attacks his craft patiently, methodically and with great interest in finding unexpected angles. In Our Nature is about exploring these angles. While it is sonically similar to Veneer, In Our Nature shows Gonzalez’ growth as a songwriter. Displaying a heightened emphasis on melody and strong, focused lyrics – the album is a dark combination of softness and anger.
In Our Nature out September 25th on Mute Records.
