It has been a great year for Gonzalez so far. In Our Nature was championed by Pitchfork as showing enough “talent to make good on those lofty Pink Moon comparisons.” Gonzalez was nominated for a Plug Award as “Male Artist Of The Year,” and invited to perform on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Late Night with Conan Obrien, and Jimmy Kimmel Live. His live performances were widely praised: USA Today wrote of the “rapt crowd smiling private smiles,” as he performed in Washington, DC, and the Boston Herald noted that “Boston’s rowdy college crowd paid Jose Gonzalez the highest compliment at the Paradise: The packed house stood silent and listened to him,” The New York Times remarked on his performance as “nice and forceful, just alone with his instrument, his voice dry and his guitar laden with echo.”
Beyond the release of the full-length In Our Nature, Gonzalez digitally released the In Our Nature Remixes EP – featuring remixes from Todd Terje, Penchenga Nord, Beatfanatic, and Landberg & Skogehall – on Earth Day, April 22.
Gonzalez also released the digital single “Teardrop” featuring the exclusive b-side “Four Forks Ache” on May 6. (“Teardrop” is originally performed/recorded by Massive Attack.)
