Al Church is a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Minneapolis, MN. His 2015 album, "Next Summer," was named Best Electronic/Pop Album of the year by L'etoile Magazine. "It’s almost dangerously entertaining in places, a kind of 70s/80s pastiche that takes the best bit of about a thousand genres I love (here a little Yacht Rock, there a little 80s electro, there a touch of Gary Wright, there a hint of Peter Gabriel) and weaves it into a damn wonderful pop masterpiece, the first big local blast of the year."- Jon Hunt, L'etoile Magazine. City Pages also praised the album. "You And I" comes off as a dynamic combination of Dirty Projectors' angelic harmonies and the effervescent pop that filled the original Miami Vice soundtrack, like cruising in a white Ferrari to a hot house party or to solve a crime," Erik Thompson from City Pages wrote. "On the piano-laced title track, he sounds more like Queen's Freddie Mercury." 2018's "Night Games" album also got some love from Star Tribune, "Church himself is a very Oates-ian music hustler who also happens to have Hall-esque frontman charisma and vocal chops — not to mention a discernibly ’80s pop sound — all of which shines through on his new solo album, “Night Games.” Al currently plays guitar and sings in BBGUN and Actual Wolf, Producer and guitarist for Gaelynn Lea, More Light, plays drums with Andy Cook and lends his skills to session work with a wide array of genres.
