See Mk.gee play “ROCKMAN” and “Alesis” on Saturday Night Live

Over the weekend, Mk.gee was the musical guest on the latest episode of Saturday Night Live, where he played his recent single “ROCKMAN” and “Alesis” from this year’s The Two Star & the Dream Police.

That album, made with longtime collaborator Dijon, has had a spellbinding effect since its release, channeling rock, pop, and R&B through murky, textured production that makes the songs feel off-kilter. The response has led to sold-out shows across the U.S., which included bizarre theatrics like playing the same song 12 times in a set. “This record was supposed to feel like a little forest fire,” Mk.gee told The New York Times earlier this year. “Little refractions of perfect songs amid a lot of chaos and weird atonal moments.” The guitarist will resume his world tour in December, finishing out the run with stops in Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne.
