British producer and singer-songwriter Alistair, known as Bleacher Boy, is a rising creative who excels at coming up with the trendiest alt-pop, grunge, and cloud rap-inspired singles. His new songs, “Drifter” and “Fool’s Diamond,” wonderfully incorporate these genres in their soundtrack, supporting Bleacher Boy’s soothing voice from beginning to end. An innovative artist, Bleacher Boy has been in and out of music, and just recently decided to trust his instincts, at a time when his kind of music is reaching unprecedented heights in terms of popularity.
He grew up listening to Eminem, Green Day, Scooter, and Blink 182, artists that have undeniably influenced his own music, known for bridging gaps between music genres and subcultures. His trendy sound nonetheless includes lyrics that stray away from the glamorization of drugs, depression, and hate, with more of a focus on mindfulness and self-growth. It’s quite refreshing to watch the rise of an artist promoting such values over cinematic soundscapes that sometimes emit infectiously high energy. Don’t get too surprised if you keep wanting to press the play button on repeat.
