“The Last American is an album perfect for these times; Ali Aslam is an artist perfectly of these times.”

“On ‘The Last American’, Pakistani-American songwriter Ali Aslam shares a nuanced perspective from both inside and outside the American Dream. Meticulously produced by E.W. Harris, the album is as sonically textured as the subject matter. “How’s it all going to be okay?”, asks Aslam on ‘The Wise Man and the Fool’, before concluding, “It’s all going to be okay.” We believe him both times. An excellent debut. ”

“Ali Aslam makes delightfully theatrical pop music, but don’t let his catchy tunes distract you from the depth of his lyrics. Working with broad themes of love, belonging, and identity, he’s a generous creative spirit with a powerhouse voice whose music invites listeners to explore connection and belonging. That makes his new album not just beautiful, but also something of a balm for these uncertain times.”
