Life may be strange and the future uncertain, but with Semisonic back in action, one thing’s for sure: you’re not alone. Though they pre-date the current landscape of lockdowns and social distancing, they feel tailor-made for the times, mixing hope and nostalgia in equal measure as they reckon with our shared mortality and the interconnectedness of all things. The songs here are eerily prescient, reflecting on isolation, connection, and resilience in the face of profound change. Recorded at Wilson’s Los Angeles studio, the EP is pure Semisonic in all its ragged, rousing glory, fueled by lean arrangements and muscular performances of poignant, bittersweet, alt-rock gems. With ‘You’re Not Alone,’ Semisonic’s first new studio release since 2001, Wilson and his bandmates (bassist John Munson and drummer Jacob Slichter) have finally cracked the code, sounding more vital, more dynamic, and more like themselves than ever before. “It was almost like I couldn’t remember how to be that guy anymore.” “Every so often, I’d sit down and try to write a Semisonic song, but it just wouldn’t sound right,” says frontman Dan Wilson, now a GRAMMY-winning writer and producer known for his work with Adele, Taylor Swift, John Legend, Leon Bridges, The Dixie Chicks, and countless others. The shows were always a joy, and the three often mused about returning to the studio, but new music simply wasn’t coming. It’s been nearly 20 years since we last heard from Semisonic, the seminal Minneapolis trio who defined a decade of rock and roll with their ubiquitous hit, “Closing Time.” Though the band never officially broke up, they parted ways in the early 2000s, remaining close and periodically reuniting for one-offs and charity performances over the years.
We are ever grateful fo our wonderful fans, for their support, and to the awesome people at First Avenue, who have been with us from the very beginning. We were looking forward to walking on stage and playing our songs together, and we hope that we can find a time, sooner than later, to do that once again. Refunds for all tickets will be available at the point of purchase. Due to the ongoing public health crisis our country is facing and the rise in COVID cases, we feel it’s best for everyone. It is with a heavy heart that we have to cancel our upcoming Semisonic shows at First Avenue on September 9 & 10.
