Greg Mendez returns with a wrist that works! After spending months sidelined by surgery, the Philly-based indie sensation has just released his latest single, ‘Alone‘, ahead of his upcoming EP First Time / Alone, out on October 18th. And that’s not all. He also announced a massive 2025 US tour with Tomberlin and Lomelda.
The EP is a four-song journey recorded on a four-track in his West Philly apartment, capturing the vulnerability and isolation that marked his recovery period. Pre-order it here.
For those of us who’ve followed Mendez since his breakthrough self-titled album (which, by the way, is also being reissued this December), this new release feels like a continuation of his storytelling magic.
Watch the video for ‘Alone’ below:
