Scarypoolparty live at Paste Studio on the Road: LA

[@rebekahmatos5230]

Crying how beautiful this soul sings and the guitar play is … heaven

[@miketackabery7521]

I've not been overwhelmed by an artist in... my God at 70 years old now... I don't know how long. But he is overwhelming. A wonder. A marvel.

[@SamSungOk]

I'm 61. I'm used to classical Indian music. Not into English music so much but I heard him once and I can't stop. There is something about his presence and creation that transcends cultural boundaries. He creates another world right in front of you, of music, lyrics and his magic, where he wants you to go, and you want to be a part of it too. But painfully, you can't. Love this guy!

[@ebbrown8771]

Well said!

[@taylorrenee4880]

Cool story, didn’t read it all, but you sounded passionate

[@hectornegron9155]

The difference between an IDOL and a consummate ARTIST. Watching from Puerto Rico.

[@johndow7258]

I'm 71 music appreciation has no age limit From Alejandro first audition his growth has been phenomenal!!

[@jeep1070]

The darkness is the LIGHT. Sprinkle this man everywhere.

[@jamiemarshall4218]

Plain and simple Alejandro just melts your heart away.

[@TheGoodLydia]

I can't wait to see him in Tempe, AZ! I'm a big fan!!

[@AprilMartinChartrandMS]

A once in a lifetime gifted musician. Wow... This is such a gift...

[@aikomorioka5024]

OH MY GOD! I’VE JUST HEARD THE SOUNDS OF MUSIC HEAVEN!

[@mariaconsiglio2172]

He has an acoustic tour coming up soon starting June 4.... pls check the sched😃

[@carolmcfadden2913]

Mystic magical wondrous music..holy cow it's even holy..like from a monk praying

[@trishysjams]

I totally agree!

[@aliciagonzalez6747]

Nothing like hearing him live! Everyone should try to get to one of his shows, he'll blow your mind!

[@mauradonohue8465]

Thank you for that 30 minute journey to a place where all the world goes silent. One man and his guitar spreading magic. ✌️

[@sigchiry]

1000th like. 14 people are idiots and don’t understand how rare a vocal track like this is paired with such phenomenal guitar work. Never heard of this kid. Brand new fan here.

[@athlene110]

The way he plays the guitar, it's SO soulful, plus his singing is of course so soulful. I've never seen guitar playing like this before. Even some of the best guitarists don't play with this kind of soul.

[@fdo060988]

He's grown so much since his first audition on American Idol. His voice sounds so powerful and with so much strength. Amazing artist!!

[@mariaconsiglio2172]

He has acoustic tour coming this June! U won’t regret it if u watch🥰

[@fdo060988]

@@mariaconsiglio2172 it's going to be via streaming? Because I'm from Chile. I'm far away from the states 😅

[@mariaconsiglio2172]

Fernando Pizarro ....ohh😄 I wish you could get the chance someday, he’s amazing live😍

[@leerivera4699]

what just happened!!! this guy is a pure genius, It was a Nirvana/Radiohead/Hendrix phenomena omg the best song i have ever heard. Music history has just been made

[@tiwatattoo407]

Couldn't agree more!!!!! This is completely dawnbreaking shit!!

[@THEmaggspie]

perfect description!!

[@brunomillalaf8553]

What was your favorite song from the vid?

[@TheMegolas1]

I can’t enough of him!!! Genius-level artistry.

[@rocstdyray5704]

Crazy guitar skills wow

[@lynny-lyn14]

SPP just keeps getting more soulful, more skilled, more creative, more everything. Thanks Paste Magazine, for the great conversation, and amazing music. Much needed and appreciated.

[@PeterXian]

Tears in my eyes. In 100 yrs this man shall be in the ranks among the stars of his own idols

[@sergeshow4292]

Yeahhhh so cooll, the darkness in live studio is amazing, mindblowing actually

[@joemoreno452]

You were born with this sort of great expression and boy does it show in your music I can feel your soul your heart even your tears inside your body you make beautiful music continue your journey and your heart artist

[@amygoldstein1925]

Ten Years. Omg I just don’t have words for this performance. It’s just so GREAT.

[@earhearlovelovehearear1329]

Alejandro, guitar and vocals. Holy Trinity 🙏❤️🙏

[@realboltfan]

Rare talent here...pay attention folks.

[@pbenson56fran]

His music is so pure with truth. Loved him when I saw him years ago on Idol.

[@cindyhinkel6863]

Thanks Paste!! It’s always a treat to watch Scarypoolparty play!! So looking forward to his upcoming tour!!

[@vickiPERSON4370]

He is just so authentic and honest!

[@johannaappel730]

In absolute awe of his talent, musicianship and heart. Thank you thank you thank you

[@annachell1002]

Back for another listen! It takes me a few times to process all this talent!

[@diegoalves1007]

If I had not watched but only listened to this video...I would never guess He is playing alone...He's an Xman!!!! Love from Brazil!!!

[@rockfordrocker8971]

Oh dang, that was super cool. His singing has gotten a lot more power last couple of years. He is SO all in when he plays. Real deal.

[@clorybuxton2519]

Nice curls. I’m a new fan here. Ross Lynch recommended me to listen to your music. Beautiful music!

[@mrinalsharma21]

His songs are freaking treat day in day out.. I can listen to u playing that guitar and sing all my life.. 🙏

[@sherribrody5456]

I'm always stunned when he started playing guitar, and when his ethereal voice comes in, I'm in tears. It is so wonderful to see him again. Thanks so much for having this special performer. I don't know what to say about Alejandro that hasn't already been said.

[@sicacodafo]

He mesmerizes with his haunting melancholy

[@JJ-oi5vo]

Woke up this morning with the most beautiful music.. What a great way to start a new day💜 smiling in Nederland 💯🎶😊

[@marionkubica5310]

Thank you Paste for having my favorite musician. Always amazing.

[@RobBaldridge]

Just discovered Alejandro a few days ago and haven’t been able to stop listening. His guitar playing is so full and technical, like an entire orchestra backing his vocals. Just incredible.

[@mariaconsiglio2172]

It might interest u to know that if u love him best in acoustic like this presentation, he has an all acoustic coming this June. Pls check out if your city is included! He’s great ❤️❤️❤️ saw him twice already n seeing him again this June❤️

[@rosiemcl2000]

Alejandro's 🎹 playing is fantastic 👏 too. Self taught.

[@gypsy.burstingheart7020]

Have you heard his piano melodies? 🔥😢 you won’t be able to choose after that. Check Blesser in his KZbin channel under Scarypoolparty. Goosebumps 🔥 also songs like Cholo Love and Tonight... both are piano melodies ( maybe not pure piano but 🔥) Stay safe, be happy and enjoy Alejandro’s music. (Scarypoolparty as an artist) (@Scarypoolparty in Instagram. He used to post more before but you can find gorgeous nips of his gems in there) (By now maybe you have seen all my suggestions, sorry. I didn’t realize this comment was 2 month old. ☮️ and enjoy)

[@antoniosimoes2516]

Amazing! I listen today first time Alexandro! God bless you ! From Portugal i hope he come one day play at my home! I love you man!

[@selvinalbertrajsongs5669]

This is purely ANOTHER LEVEL GUITAR PLAYING and SINGING PERFORMANCE!! 👏👏👏

[@deborahdewar746]

so much talent

[@francineswift9489]

Yeesssss!!! We loved the 2019 show

[@tombucscrazy]

When a musician amazes you with their mastery of being able to project so much emotion with their songs that you feel every bit of it and enjoy those moments that you never want to end, Amazing Alejandro!

[@raymondk4682]

Amazing artist. Love love love. Wishing Alejandro great success

[@HimanshuSharma-oy9ss]

I've never heard anything like '10 years' as he's performed today.My senses were hypnotized. What magic is this.

[@agra716]

I agreel

[@ryanrichardson69]

10 years is an actual masterpiece

[@trudedempsey1269]

That was so amazing!!! But I am never surprised at this artists musical genius!!

[@williamcosta5187]

Amazing show!!!!! Congrats!!!

[@edrianaldas4813]

wanna see him win a grammy

[@philc1884]

Holy sheet I almost forgot what a sick guitarist he is. Just crazy.

[@ohumanschool]

He's performing at the genius level of Bach & Mozart. Truly a generational treasure.

[@francineswift9489]

Omg!!! EXCLUSIVE

[@pieroxtnio2853]

Thank you for posting this! Alejandro is great.! so talented, what a genius.!

[@RatIceCream]

I’m just so grateful for Alejandro

[@annachell1002]

Just Incredible! It’s a joy to listen to this artist!

[@falcongal63]

Great mini-concert and especially love hearing The Darkness again. Really sounded great! Thank you Paste and Scarypoolparty!

[@munivisionmuni5620]

Still gives me goosebumps

[@rosem1162]

I am so loving Alejandro's music journey...such beautiful lyrics and singing and arrangements and style and grace...such a gift to listen to him.

[@ShivamRaj-is6oq]

I mean he just introduced whole new level of guitar playing 🔥

[@katherinetrinh1784]

Great performance! Absolutely mesmerizing. Gave me chills, especially “The Darkness.” Artist of a lifetime. Musical genius.

[@lizzuegner6237]

Thank you for sharing the amazing music and performance of Scarypoolparty!💙🎵

[@zennyrosales946]

This is great! So talented! Thanks Paste!

[@trishysjams]

beautiful!!!!😭 I cantwait to see you, on your acoustic tour!! You are phenomenal, in any Genre!!🐐

[@2106jmc]

Darkness is one of my favorites, ever!!!

[@mariobrugsuisse8918]

one of a kind playing.. 'salute you

[@dyowanalintl]

Pleasantly relaxing. Thank you for having Alejandro. Amazing to see how he didn’t change at all - still our humble homie. His gentle soul radiates talent and honesty. 💗✨

[@Spiritdancedogs]

You’ve said it for me too. His light shines through and although they may still compare new artists on Am. Idol to Alejandro they can’t replicate his beautiful soul and spirit.

[@dyowanalintl]

@@Spiritdancedogs yep, he is once in a lifetime. 💗

[@tatakkasosyo9951]

Henyo in its form.. Amazing sounds homie💯❤️🙏

[@Lamontarrow]

phenomenal.

[@brentbrewer4891]

Amazing performance and interview. I agree with the interviewer. SPP appears to have thrived (creatively) in the (social) neglect.

[@annachell1002]

Go to one of his acoustic shows in June! You will not be disappointed. A true real artist!

[@SSSINGLEBED]

Soooooo good Alejandro...thanks...luv chilling with your music...you’re a 🌟 !

[@Bluesygal]

Thank you for having Scarypoolparty on the show. You can tell he's been working on his vocals they sounded absolutely outstanding! I could listen to him play his guitar/piano all day long! I love all his music but when he plays solo/acoustic...something special happens! What an amazing musician/artist!

[@falcongal63]

Bluesygal- He’s playing a short acoustic tour in June; go to Scarypoolparty website to see the dates. They are mostly smaller venues and it will be a rare chance to see him in such intimate settings. It’s truly a magical experience to see him play live. I’m going to 4 shows!

[@albertalvarez9411]

Thank you Paste Studios I needed this Alejandro is a True Artist 🙌

[@drmartinyoung3761]

‘Stay humble, Homey’ - Katy Perry. And Alejandro has done exactly that! A truly awesome musician, and an inspiration to others.

[@surfboyrio]

"goosebumps" all over!!!

[@RochX-7]

Guitar play is on another level. Super freaky.

[@rosiephd2be990]

Dammnnnn! Soooo Talented.

[@sfluvr007]

Alejandro is my new musical obsession!

[@turnoffmyphone]

Appreciating his art from Brazil 🇧🇷 Thank you for making this happen! Watching SPP playing live is incomparable, an emotional experience.

[@bcolsten]

How crazy that he's playing these songs, but they're...different. Like...the lyrics are the same, but otherwise, he's performing new songs. It's INCREDIBLE.

[@trixied7327]

You are a total blessing, thank you for sharing you talent.

[@theodoravankuijk9120]

Finally, please allow me to catch my breath:-)... Finally, a genuine artist has appeared, and manifested! What should I say? True emotional connection and the ability to express this through words and notes. I cannot wait what the future holds for @scarypoolparty ... I am a fan! Thank you so much.

[@PianoEvan]

This is peak Scarypoolparty right here. Feels like the gig I had the honor of going to in Brooklyn right after his run on AI. Probably better because less distractions.

[@ivangalvez6568]

Holyyy coww, this guy is just AMAZING! What a mix....I love it!

[@datleeds5188]

Love all versions of The Darkness!

[@ραυ-θ1η]

I heard he was going to make a version with an orchestra. Unless he ditched that idea. He said it on instagram a while back, replying to somebody's comment.

[@nrsvlda70]

What a talent.. so much packed into one person. Thank-you for sharing with us SPP!

[@redskittlez12]

Out Loud was ethereal 💫

[@safetygirl2112]

Really enjoyed this livestream. Scarypoolparty is so talented and creative. Thank you so much for having him. The Darkness was just incredible!! 🎸🔥🎸🔥

[@shadowfreddydc2325]

I love that song!! If a movie director approaches him for a soundtrack I hope he takes it !!! 🙏🏾

[@AndrewJWoodUK]

10 Years - what a gorgeous song. Haunting vocal performance. Possibly my favourite 😉👍🏻

[@ecwh4]

I've tried like 4 times to just put this on in the background and listen.... but then the quality of each song just keeps making you stare in awe! Keep Killin it Alejandro!

[@kathleenbanks2252]

Thank you!! Such a beautiful show.

[@josemulekjunior719]

this guy is so freaking unbelievable! All his songs are so pleasant to listen!

[@agra716]

Totally agree with you.

[@dylanbrekke1275]

Excellent job, my dude!! My dream is to open up for you one day! 🤘🏽😭🙏🏽

[@bella7450]

Alejandro! I can listen to you everyday. Such a beautiful soulful romantic voice and a beautiful humble person. I love you!

[@shadowfreddydc2325]

I hope he can make it to St.louis one day. I would cheer to the rafters!!!!

[@amygoldstein1925]

Wow, Alejandro. I’m actually hearing shades of Zeppelin’s Battle of Evermore in this new haunting piece. I’m a graduate of the Manhattan School of Music in voice and opera (1989) and taught a contestant on AGT a few years back. I am so healed by your sound and compositions that I go back nearly three times a day to hear your AI performances. Thank you so much and keep digging deep. We love you.
