Today, breakout pop artist Alessi Rose teases her next era with the new single “Skin,” out now via Capitol Records. The track arrives as she gets ready to embark on a massive festival season, and shows off her gift for delivering sharp introspection with a voice as big and dynamic as her anthemic pop. Listen HERE and watch the “Skin” visual HERE.

The first release since the November Deluxe edition of Alessi’s acclaimed Voyeur EP, “Skin” may be her most vulnerable song yet, capturing the pain and confusion of losing yourself while trying to please others. Produced and co-written by Adam Yaron (Alex Warren), it opens on taut piano and her crystal-clear vocals before sweeping up driving acoustic guitar, glowing synths, and drums that pop like fireworks. “Think I’m back in the emptiness, wearing somebody else’s skin / Still I try to be whatever you desire,” sings Alessi. “Now they’re turning on all the lights, who am I without a disguise? / I look at me and don’t even recognize her.” Despite describing such a low feeling, though, her performance and the music give a continuous sense of building toward a breakthrough.

Said Alessi on the origins of “Skin,” “This song was written in a period that felt very different for me I have been lucky enough to be locked away in the studio burrowing into the many feelings I have simmering under the surface, many of them remnants of a crazy last year, and I hadn’t realized how much of my OCD-ridden brain was so dependent on the validation of others — people telling me I was doing good and it was all going to be okay. ‘Skin’ was the realization that the more you try to be everything that everyone else wants, the less you feel like yourself. Sometimes my skin feels uncomfortable, but I’m learning to exist in it honestly anyway.”

=1remAfter a huge 2025 that saw her playing arenas and stadiums on both the North American leg of Tate McRae=1rem’s Miss Possessive Tour and the European run of Dua Lipa=1rem’s Radical Optimism Tour, Alessi=1rem entered this year landing on BBC Radio 1’s Sound of 2026 Longlist=1rem, Shazam’s Fast Forward 2026 Artists=1rem, SiriusXM & Pandora “Artist Accelerator”=1rem and Vevo DSCVR’s Artists to Watch 2026=1rem, where she performed stunning live renditions of her singles “oh my”=1rem and “First Original Thought.”=1rem She was also named to the DIY Mag Class of 2026=1rem in a feature which noted that following an impressive run of “witty and candid indie-pop bangers [Alessi is] writing the upbeat anthems that will take her career to the next level.”

Voyeur (Deluxe) captured that transition in real time, adding three “big, melodramatic pop songs,” as Alessi put it, to the original eight-song powerhouse tracklist. “First Original Thought” was one of those newcomers — a disco-leaning takedown penned by Alessi, GRAMMY® Award winner Blake Slatkin (Charli xcx, Tate McRae) and Amy Allen (the 2025 recipient of the GRAMMY® Award for Songwriter of the Year, Non-Classical). Upon release, the cheeky single drew raves from the likes of Rolling Stone, who stated that the electrifying track should “push her further towards becoming a household name.”

Made with in-demand producers like Sam De Jong (Gracie Abrams, Lennon Stella), John Hill (Cage the Elephant, Carly Rae Jepsen), Sammy Witte (SZA, Halsey), and Couros (Dora Jar, Saya Gray), Voyeur spotlights Alessi’s singular talent for turning her messiest feelings into arena-sized anthems. With its gorgeous collision of sticky-sweet melodies and razor-sharp lyrics, the EP includes standouts like “Same Mouth,” “Everything Anything,” “That Could Be Me,” and “Dumb Girl.” Along with earning major praise from the likes of NPR’s All Songs Considered (who included the EP on their best new albums roundup) , PAPER, V Magazine and more. NME, featured Alessi on the cover and proclaimed, “pop’s most brutally honest newcomer is on an unstoppable rise.”

=1remAfter a knockout Glastonbury=1rem debut last year that Billboard=1rem hailed as “superstar-cementing,” Alessi=1rem is now preparing for an extended festival run that includes Radio 1’s Big Weekend=1rem, Isle of Wight Festival=1rem, Lollapalooza Berlin=1rem, Pukkelpop=1rem, and many more — plus a pair of concerts at BST Hyde Park in July and opening for Lorde=1rem at Edinburgh’s Highland Showgrounds in August.
