Country music pioneer-slash-Monkee Michael Nesmith once compared vaporwave to an egg, in that once you crack into it, “it goes all over the place.”

The same can be said about one of the subgenre’s most multifaceted faces. George Clanton, 37, makes a point to dissect electronica as much as possible, and just surprise-released a deluxe version of his latest album with indie-pop outfit TV Girl Fauxllennium two weeks ago, which adds an additional seven songs to the original LP’s seven.

Recently, he hit Amoeba Records in Los Angeles, where he revealed that Seal’s second eponymous album was his favorite record of all time, so if you plan to do a preshow deep dive and hear a tinge of “Prayer For The Dying” anywhere in Clanton’s catalog, you’ll know why.

Tickets to see George Clanton play Jannus Live in St. Petersburg on Thursday, April 24 are still available and start at $28.
