EXCELLENT!!!!! We love Alejandro aka Scarypoolparty!!! Such a humble and gracious guy all while being a musical virtuoso!!!
Great interview!!! Love it that you focused on Alejandro’s development as an artist and how he wants to move forward as a musician. I totally admire his very progressive vision on how music of varying genres can be shared with people in one show or one album, that musicians don’t have to be tied to a single genre. I believe that Scarypoolparty is indeed a once in a lifetime artist, not only because of his amazing music that grip our hearts, but also because he will be the catalyst to bring all generations together in music of all genres. The years to come with Scarypoolparty’s music will be mind-blowing, beyond what any of us have known. 🎶🎶🎶❤️
Alejandro I like you so much. I want to see you on the top of the music world. God bless!
I’m a simple man. I see Alejandro, I click.
He is looking so comfortable,confident and handsome!!💗🥰
Woah Alejandro is so chill and well spoken, great interview 👍🏻
Great to hear his ideas on different styles of music and how he is going to present them on his Fall tour!!
Awesome interview! Really showcased what we love about his music.....diversity, honesty, freedom, no limits on creativity. He is a true music lovers artist. And such a nice guy!
So happy to see him relaxed
I’m so excited for SPP’s fall tour! Every song and style he’s put out has been fantastic! Can’t wait to see him live in October!! 💜🎶💜
AA seems to be getting a lot more comfortable with interviews and it's great to see him so relaxed. Shout out to Dead Can Dance that I've heard him mention before - I love their stuff! Really looking forward to see how the studio version of Cholo Love is going to sound - he's releasing it August 9th. And I love the fact that he's going to present different styles from the get-go. He's not a one-dimensional artist and his creativity and diverse tunes are what I really love about his music. Cannot wait for the full album!

Cool. He has ability to put out different types of music. Very talented!
Alejandro’s Lolla Aftershow concert at Park West last night at was LIT!! He did indeed play different styles of music including a lot of his music from SoundCloud including one of my favorites “ALONE“!! Some fans may not appreciate this but , most certainly do and he’s going to gain even more fans at Lolla!! I’m even more excited to see him in November and I didn’t even think that was possible!!!! 🖤🔥🖤🔥🖤

I know he’s going to do big things .. he’s absolutely amazing!!!❤️
Love him being his authentic self and his beautiful talent but I have to say I like his hair the natural dark color but it's his hair I love him nomatter what color as long as he never changes his self and stays humble 🙏🎵♥️👍🎵🎶🎸🎹
Great interview! I love how Alejandro is just himself.....He's just "Chill" He's the kind of guy you'd love to sit around with at a BBQ and have a beer with. It's nice to also see he's becoming more and more comfortable in his own skin in front of the cameras....the public view which can be totally brutal.
Happy Birthday, Alejandro!!!🎂🎉🎉🎈🎈🎈💕
Love this guy's music, thank you for respecting him! And thank you for the interview
Lovely interview. It is great getting insight into his thought process concerning his art. Confirms our belief that he is truly passionate and humble and gifted. Looking forward to many years of his beautiful music.💖💖

I think I can hear some of his “untold” story by listening to little details in several of the interviews he’s done. Growing up my mother was a very fundamentalist Christian and she wouldn’t let my brother and I listen to “worldly music” or watch “worldly movies/cartoons/tv shows.” We weren’t allowed to celebrate Halloween or participate in other “worldly” activities. I went to a private christian school and to church 4 days out of the week twice on Sunday. So from an early age I had to sneak around to listen to good music and watch cool movies/tv. I remember hiding somewhere in the house so I could record my favorite songs off the radio on to audio tape. I used to secretly watch music videos like the way other kids my age were looking at “porno mags,” as the beasties put it. I was scared of getting caught listening to ozzy Osborne because he was a “Satan worshipper” according to my mother. Perhaps it was all the hiding and sneaking around but I fell in love with music and long story short I taught myself how to play guitar, started writing songs, started a band, almost signed to Epic Records, got to tour with some famous bands at the time, and even got a great paying job writing music. I’m an old fart now and obviously Alejandro’s path is very different than mine, he’s far more talented BTW, but I feel like his story has something to do with a religious upbringing and having to sneak around to listen to NIN... haha, I too had to hide my NIN CDs. I’m really rooting for Alejandro now (didn’t want him to win Idol, he’s far greater talent for that show, he made all other contestants past and present seem like commercial jingl-ers) and admittedly I am a bit jealous but in a good supportive way :) Kindred spirit

Great interview. How did you get it? Watch the views go crazy. You picked the right guy.
Great interview. Love this guy man. Honest and authentic.
Awesome interview. I enjoyed the conversation about being open-minded with music. Alejandro is known for blending various genres in his music and even within each song as well. From industrial with sprinkles of classical to jazzy with some R&B to acoustic and folk to ‘90’s synth/pop, his vast knowledge of music just blows me away. Add the fact that he possesses genius skills on both piano and guitar AND his smooth soulful vocals and you have an artist of a lifetime. You’re a shining star!
Im a metal head first and foremost. But I LOVE and feel alllllll genres of music. I adore Fleetwood Mac, Slipknot, Amity Affliction, Sneaky sound system, Metallica, INXS, Suzie Quatro, Five finger death punch, Tash Sultana, Slayer, Crystal Castles, Devilskin, so on and so on... I could give 100000 bands that I connect to. Im so greatful this genius was recognised and can give us the goods 🥰

It’s El Homie
2day I ask my self where is Alejandro
i thought he was from pomona not san francisco?
I am a huge fan of Alejandro's and it pains me to say this but his concert last night at Park West was extremely disappointing. I read that he was going to have a band but I expected they would compliment his music in the background. Instead, the band completely drowned him out. The drummer was especially loud. Alejandro's first four numbers were hard rock and the band was so loud that we couldn't even hear a word AA was singing. One of my friends had to leave the venue and wait outside. It was that loud! At first, I wasn't even sure it was him on stage as the music sounded like noise and not what I’ve become accustomed to hearing from AA. A couple of young guys sitting near us looked bewildered, turned to us and asked, "What happened?" - to Alejandro, we presumed. We responded, "We don't know." All of Alejandro's concerts to date have been just him and his guitar. HE DOESN'T NEED A BAND. I realize AA has different styles of music, I love his acoustic numbers but appreciate Dissonant Harmony, Satisfied, etc. as well. He played only two acoustic solos which the crowd clearly loved - you could hear a pin drop. My understanding is that he will have a band accompany him for the fall tour. If the band is similar (or the same one) to the one that performed tonight, many of his fans are in for a huge disappointment. I have been raving to my friends about AA, were excited about this concert and found myself apologizing to them all the way home. Sure hope he performs at least four numbers with only his acoustic guitar for the fall tour. Finally, will someone on Alejandro's team please steer him to a professional who can guide him on how to properly care for his voice. He has mentioned problems with his voice during the last few concerts. If his voice is failing him now, what's going to happen in the fall when he has to perform at 30 different venues? In fact, I wonder if he is straining his voice from attempting to sing as loudly as the band. Sincerely wishing AA all the best. Peace.

MOvalle ,You’re in the minority!! His true fans know that’s Alejandro!! He’s very diversified in many genres and he played many of his music from SoundCloud and we’re ALL excited for his Fall Tour!! Maybe you should “LISTEN “ to what he’s saying about playing different music and appreciating the artist in this interview. It’s obvious you just came here to make a totally unnecessary negative comment!! If you didn’t like it just move along!! And you’re not a Fan of Alejandro so stop pretending and making FAKE accounts, lol 😂 🤣🤣🤣🤣

MOvalle that is the artist direction he has decided and as fans we shouldn’t force him to play how we want him to. I just saw him in concert last night his first half was loud but amazing and his band was loud but on beat and not just noise. I understand people who fell in love with him on American idol might be disappointed but that wasn’t his true self he was limited and had to make tv friendly music. He was amazing last night. I wish I could see him again. You may just be a fan of a couple of songs and that’s okay. :) i enjoyed what he delivered.

@@Horchata_y_papitas Of course he should play whatever music he wants. I get that. However, after the six week mini tour which was acoustic, AI asked fans if they wanted more concerts. Fans responded enthusiastically and most of us had a "reasonable expectation" that fall tour would be a continuation of the acoustic concerts. It would be like going to a jazz concert and having a country band play OR vice versa (I love both genres). I've read recent critical remarks from Portland, Boulder and Berkeley fans who were in shock at the concert with many Portland fans walking out. AA has said that he had 2K Instagram followers before AI. At one point, number grew to over 750K during AI. He has lost almost 30K followers - probably attributed to very negative remark he posted about a month ago. For godsake, where is his management team? They are supposed to guide him. And no shade here - I love his voice on acoustic music, but IMO it's not strong enough for hard rock. He is free to perform whatever kind of music he so desires, just let his audience know so they can determine whether they want to attend. Peace out.

Any psychiatrists out there to have a guess in regard to the possibility he may be autistic or have asked burgers syndrome? Who thinks Twin Shadow is his boyfriend? Again I’m not trying to be mean. It’s just strangely on spoken with this guy in regard to his personal traits in general.
