June 24, 2022—Rising superstar glaive unveils a new song, “minnesota" today alongside a Ramez Silyan-directed video—watch here and listen here.
"This was the second song I made for the glaive album. Making ‘minnesota’ was a weight off my shoulders because I realized that I was still good at music. It’s the perfect song for the next phase of my career and life."
Additionally, glaive confirms a fall North American headline tour today with dates including Nashville, Portland and Seattle in addition to previously announced sets at Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits. The 17-year-old is currently on tour with The Kid LAROI in Europe and will play a run of headline dates in the U.K. next month. Visit glaivemusic.com/tour for more information.
“minnesota” is the latest in what’s been a whirlwind rise for glaive. The 17-year-old artist’s three EPs to date—cypress grove, all dogs go to heaven (plus its deluxe edition old dog, new tricks) and then i’ll be happy with ericdoa—have received widespread critical acclaim, landing him in the top of Best Of lists from The New York Times, The FADER and more. Most recently, he collaborated with Machine Gun Kelly on “more than life.”
glaive continues to receive widespread praise:
“More tense than a tug of war and more fun than a loop-the-loop, [‘i wanna slam my head against the wall’] is an evolutionary leap for the young hyperpop star glaive, who is finding the middle ground between the scene’s mayhem and the sweetness of pop.”
“For all their jagged textures, songs like ‘astrid,’ ‘2009’ and ‘i wanna slam my head against the wall’ carry sweet, shapely melodies nearly as catchy as those on Top 40 radio. And lyrically he captures the awkwardness and frustration of adolescence with wit and detail”
"Glaive’s best songs sound like a fist crashing through a plywood wall. He’s full of rage but seemingly bummed out about not having the answers to life’s problems, which makes sense — he’s still just 16 and working shit out."
glaive is a vocalist, songwriter and producer from the mountains of North Carolina who began making music at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, releasing his first song on Soundcloud in April 2020. His rise since has been meteoric, supported by a steady stream of new music that has quickly earned him acclaim and a devoted following.
