Scarypoolparty Releases New Single “Diamonds” Today, Kicks Off First-Ever National Headlining Tour Next Week

Performing on the Austin City Limits main stage today (10.4)

Announces morgxn, Sucre and Twin Shadow as tour support, only limited tickets remain in select markets 

 

Scarypoolparty is an artist that “comes around only once in a lifetime” (Ones to Watch). During his first-ever full-band show at Lollapalooza, his intoxicating and jaw-dropping guitar skills paired with his masterful piano playing showed an artist “with a rare gift for musicality that stops you dead in your tracks” (Ones to Watch). In a set filled with a “confidence and abandon [that's] just magical”(The Chicago Tribune), his musical prowess has landed him on best-of festival lists from Billboard, Ones To Watch, GRAMMY and more.

Today, Scarypoolparty continues to showcase his “impressive musicianship” (Billboard) on his latest self-produced single, “Diamonds”. Co-written by Alejandro Aranda and Sawyr, the song brings his full throttle energy and genre defying style approach to the forefront. Layered with electronic nuances, there’s an industrial-rock angst that encapsulates the yearning urgency of Aranda’s lyrics. The hypnotic, synth-driven track immediately calls to mind The Nine Inch Nails raw energy and The 1975’s bombastic-yet-exuberant dance rock.

This 25-year-old, Pomona, CA-native will take the main stage at Austin City Limits this afternoon (2:15-3pm CT) before heading out on his 30-date debut national headlining tour. The majority of the tour is already SOLD-OUT with a limited number of tickets remaining for select dates. Joining him this fall as support is LA-based alt/pop artist morgxn, Indie-pop’s Sucre, and long time collaborator Twin Shadow. Scarypoolparty will be making his SOLD-OUT UK debut with Violet Skies & Toby Johnson later this year. 

With the summer release of singles “Tonight” and “Cholo Love”, he has already gained attention from Billboard, Pollstar, Ones to Watch (x6), Gibson, and many others. 

Alejandro Aranda (aka Scarypoolparty) spent much of his time busking around Los Angeles and performing at backyard parties but things turned around for him quickly when he received a spot on American Idol. His distinct style of playing and original music caught the attention of the critics, fans and stars alike, earning his audition over 14 million views), growing his socials exponentially, selling out a 6-date run of acoustic shows in just 15 minutes and shooting his original song “Out Loud” onto the Spotify viral chart. He is currently in-studio working on his debut LP.
