Glimmer of God arrives as Jean Dawson's fourth album, a kaleidoscopic masterpiece that builds upon the success of the world he built in CHAOS NOW*. Seamlessly blending electronic music and alternative rock, Glimmer of God creates a transcendent genre-bending experience that invites one to lose themselves in Dawson's idiosyncratic vision, listen after listen.

From the pulsating bassline of "Darlin'" which opens the 15-track project to the ethereal vocals and poetic lyrics of "Die For Me" featuring Lil Yachty, Glimmer of God offers a diverse range of tracks that explore themes of identity, intimacy, and escapism. Standout moments include the collaboration with BONES on "P4IN" and the resonant synth-forward texture of "Slow Heavy Ecstasy" that contrasts the orchestral tonality of "The Boy & The Swan." 

Dawson's innovative production techniques and distinctive sound solidify his position as a boundary-pushing artist. Glimmer of God is a testament to his continued evolution and clear desire to push against any prevailing norms.

Currently headlining a U.S. tour, Jean Dawson is at the forefront of new-age alternative music characterized by his vibrant energy and ambitious stage presence. Continuing to defy boundaries, Dawson invites his listeners to seek escapism through this high-spirited effort.
