FAST RISING SINGER/SONGWRITER ANNOUNCES NEW EP VOYEUR OUT JULY 25th
ALESSI MADE HER U.S. LIVE DEBUT WITH SOLD-OUT HEADLINE SHOWS IN NYC AND LOS ANGELES
SUMMER/FALL TOURS WITH DUA LIPA AND TATE MCRAE TO FOLLOW
Today, fast-rising breakout artist Alessi Rose makes her Capitol Records with “Same Mouth” — an electrifying new single spotlighting the self-made star’s no-filter lyrics and high-level artistry. The start of a thrilling new era for the London-based 22-year-old, “Same Mouth” is the first song released from her forthcoming EP Voyeur, out July 25th.
Hailed as one of the “15 Rising U.K. and Ireland Acts to Watch in 2025” by Billboard, Alessi has already sold out two U.K./European headline tours, amassed millions of streams across a pair of EPs and emerged as one of the most fascinating young artists on the scene today, garnering critical praise from the NME, Line of Best Fit, The Face and more. In this cover feature, Dork Magazine declared her “the voice of a new confessional pop generation.”
Produced by Josh Scarbrow (Arlo Parks) and Sam De Jong (Gracie Abrams, Lennon Stella), “Same Mouth” arrives as a glorious introduction to Voyeur’s unabashed and candidly detailed storytelling. As Alessi explains, the guitar-driven track surfaced from a moment of pure frustration with the emotional torment of no-strings-attached relationships.
Said Alessi, “‘Same Mouth’ is me confronting the hypocrisy of an ambiguous relationship but it’s also about the abandonment of self and the idea that if I’m aware of what I’m getting myself into, then maybe I’m not the victim, and maybe I’m actually in control.”
Built on her magnetic vocal work, “Same Mouth” embodies a bright and soaring sound inspired by the cinematic indie-pop of 2000s-era teen-movie soundtracks. In a brilliant contrast to the song’s carefree energy, Alessi reveals her willingness to shine a light on the darkest parts of her psyche (from the chorus: “It’s kinda masochistic/I’ll hurt myself so you fix it/Say you’re not down/But you kiss me with the same mouth”). Both sensitive and fiercely self-possessed, Alessi ultimately channels desperation, anger, and all-consuming desire with an unforgettable emotional impact.
Made with leading producers like John Hill (Cage the Elephant, Carly Rae Jepsen) and Sammy Witte (Halsey, SZA), Voyeur brings an even bolder vision and greater self-assurance to Alessi’s stream-of-consciousness brand of alt-pop — fully delivering on her recently stated intentions to be “outrageously myself.” See below for the full tracklist to Voyeur.
“In my EP Voyeur, the voyeurism is twofold, explains Alessi. The audience becomes a voyeur of my innermost thoughts and feelings through the music, but additionally I am a voyeur of myself and my own, sometimes self-sabotaging, decisions. I wanted this EP to feel like the unfiltered version of events that you tell your closest friends and I feel like the bluntness and stream of consciousness lyrics reflect that. I don’t care how I’m perceived because I trust the listener.”
Earlier this month Alessi wrapped up her first series of U.S. tour dates with the second of two sold-out shows at the Moroccan Lounge in Los Angeles. The run also included two sold-out nights at New York City’s Baby’s All Right and followed her U.K./European headline tour which sold out in less than 10 minutes, subsequently upgraded venues and immediately sold out again. Now on the road supporting pop superstar Dua Lipa in arenas and stadiums on the European/U.K. leg of her Radical Optimism tour, Alessi will soon gear up to join Tate McRae on the North American leg of the Miss Possessive tour, which launches in August.
Growing up in Derby, England, Alessi first explored her creative side by writing poetry at age 13. With her longtime inspirations including pop visionaries like Lorde and Kate Bush, she soon began writing songs and later taught herself to produce music while working as a bartender to save up for college. As she gained attention for her gritty but deeply heartfelt songwriting, Alessi made her debut in the summer of 2023 with the self-written and self-produced “say ur mine,” which amassed over 40K views in less than a week. From there she released “hate this part” before building out a string of singles for her 2024 debut EP, rumination as ritual. Earlier this year, Alessi released her second EP, for your validation, featuring the singles “IKYK” and “oh my,” quickly earning a global following. Stay tuned for more new music from Alessi soon.
