GLAIVE UNVEILS NEW “TENNIS CLUB” SERIES, EPISODE ONE FEATURING ERICDOA DEBUTS TODAY
I CARE SO MUCH THAT I DONT CARE AT ALL
OUT NOW ON INTERSCOPE RECORDS
HEADLINE TOUR UNDERWAY
October 4, 2023—Today, 18-year-old breakout artist glaive unveils his new “Tennis Club” series. Episode One, featuring longtime friend and collaborator ericdoa, is out now—watch here. The ongoing series will find glaive in conversation with fellow artists and friends over a series of tennis matches, with additional guests to be announced soon.
glaive’s “Tennis Club” arrives after the release of i care so much that i dont care at all, the artist’s debut album out now on Interscope Records—listen to the LP here. Produced with previous collaborators Jeff Hazin and Ralph Castelli, the album has received widespread critical praise from Pitchfork, Vulture, Billboard, The FADER, FLOOD Magazine, Brooklyn Vegan and more.
glaive is on tour now in celebration of the new music. The extensive run saw the artist performing at venues across North America, including New York’s Webster Hall, Los Angeles’ The Wiltern, Chicago’s Metro and in his hometown at Asheville’s The Orange Peel. Tickets for the second leg of tour are on sale now—see below for full routing.
The artist’s three EPs to date—cypress grove, all dogs go to heaven (plus its deluxe edition old dog, new tricks) and then i’ll be happy with ericdoa—have received widespread critical acclaim, landing him at the top of Best Of lists from The New York Times, The FADER and more.
Growing up in the small town of Hendersonville, North Carolina, glaive was first drawn to the sounds of radio-friendly pop songs he’d listen to in the car with his mom, before his listening soon pulled him into the nascent world of SoundCloud rap. When the pandemic hit in 2020, he spent a month indoors, in his room with black-out curtains. It was out of this period that his first songs came to be. He collaborated with friends he met online, forming musical collectives and experimenting with production. His subsequent rise was meteoric, powered by a steady stream of new music that quickly earned him acclaim and a devoted following.
