GRAMMY® Award-nominated, critically acclaimed singer and songwriter Gallant releases his anxiously awaited second full-length and one of the year’s most anticipated R&B offerings, Sweet Insomnia. Get it HERE via Warner Records.
“I called the album ‘Sweet Insomnia’ because, lyrically, every song is bittersweet. Nothing is 100% positive and light-hearted. Nothing is 100% brooding and cynical. It’s very balanced and real – like an unretouched photo,” said Gallant.
Making waves on impact, the latest single and title track “Sweet Insomnia” [Ft. 6lack] continues to engage and entice. Kendall and Kylie Jenner notably chose the song to soundtrack their latest campaign for the Kendall + Kylie clothing line. Between the singles “Sharpest Edges,” “Crimes,” “Sleep On It,” and “Compromise” [feat. Sabrina Claudio], total streams on the project already exceed 20 million and counting. The latter has quickly turned into a phenomenon in its own right. Not only did “Compromise” rack up over 8 million streams, but its understated, yet sexy music video tallied over 3 million views in under a month.
Gallant is currently supporting his “Compromise” collaborator Sabrina Claudio on the sold-out Truth Is Tour coast-to-coast. Additionally, “Sleep On It” maintains its momentum at radio. It emerged as “most added” and remains a fan favorite. Nostalgic R&B and future-facing soul thread together Sweet Insomnia. Gallant presents a cohesive vision, from the first emotionally charged croon on the intro “410,” through the glitch-y hypnosis of “Paper Tulips” where his dynamic voice blossoms. The evocative hum of “Forever 21” gives way to acoustic guitars on the anthemic “Hurt.” Everything builds towards his pure falsetto on “Céline.”
