2023 marks 20 years since the release of the debut album, "Veneer". It's hard to believe an album recorded with merely the most basic equipment in a cramped Gothenburg flat could end up going platinum. This milestone will be marked by a 20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition featuring newly remastered audio along with a bonus live album comprising thirteen intimate recordings from a historical 2003 Gothenburg Concert Hall performance. The vinyl release is pressed on double-colored clear vinyl and is available for pre-order. To get a taste, you can stream a performance of "Hints" recorded at this concert.

Every now and then I try to write lyrics in Spanish. This time I succeeded! I guess talking to Laura in Spanish everyday helped. I started writing âEl Inventoâ in the fall of 2017 when Laura was born and finished it seven months later. The song is about the questions â who we are, where weâre going, and why? Who can we thank for our existence? Historically, most traditions have invented answers to these questions. Thereof the name of the song: The Invention (god)
José Gonzålez has announced the release of his eagerly awaited fourth solo studio album. His first album in more than six years, Local Valley will arrive via City Slang and Mute on 17 September 2021.
JosĂ© GonzĂĄlezâs stellar career can only be described as a dream. Itâs easy to overlook the fact that, despite only three solo albums in 18 years, he has packed out distinguished venues from Sydney to Tallinn â via Berlin, Barcelona and Rio De Janeiro â and even sold out Londonâs prestigious, 4000+ capacity Royal Albert Hall a full three years after his last acclaimed collection, 2015âs Vestiges & Claws. GonzĂĄlezâs warm, intimate voice and tender harmonies, underlined by a dextrously plucked Spanish guitar and muted percussion, deliver profoundly thoughtful lyrics largely revolving around ideas of civilisation, humanism, and solidarity. A sincere, artful performer whose singular approach to songwriting and sonics sets him worlds apart, JosĂ© GonzĂĄlez is in a class by himself.
