The third major-studio album by Oliver Tree, 2023's Alone in a Crowd, finds the California songwriter further balancing his high-concept pop style with songs that feel born out of his own pain and personal experience. A follow-up to 2022's Cowboy Tears, the album once again features a conceptual, meta-satirical structure as Tree takes on the persona of fashion designer Cornelius Cummings. Conceptual conceits aside, Tree has long utilized his character-driven approach to explore a mix of emotionally relatable themes, and Alone in a Crowd is no exception. The opening "Bounce" is a moody, tongue-in-cheeky anthem about the emptiness of hookup culture that hints at the darker themes at play on the album. Other equally yearning songs follow, as on the electro-hip-hop cut "Fairweather Friends" and the piano-driven "Ugly Side," both of which evoke the confessional style of contemporary acts like Mike Posner and Quinn XCII. Yet there are hooky moments in Tree's theatrical pop gloom, as on the pop punk-inspired "Star" and house-inflected collaboration with German DJ Robin Schulz, "Miss You."

Album review
The third major-studio album by Oliver Tree, 2023's Alone in a Crowd, finds the California songwriter further balancing his high-concept pop style with songs that feel born out of his own pain and personal experience. A follow-up to 2022's Cowboy Tears, the album once again features a conceptual, meta-satirical structure as Tree takes on the persona of fashion designer Cornelius Cummings. Conceptual conceits aside, Tree has long utilized his character-driven approach to explore a mix of emotionally relatable themes, and Alone in a Crowd is no exception. The opening "Bounce" is a moody, tongue-in-cheeky anthem about the emptiness of hookup culture that hints at the darker themes at play on the album. Other equally yearning songs follow, as on the electro-hip-hop cut "Fairweather Friends" and the piano-driven "Ugly Side," both of which evoke the confessional style of contemporary acts like Mike Posner and Quinn XCII. Yet there are hooky moments in Tree's theatrical pop gloom, as on the pop punk-inspired "Star" and house-inflected collaboration with German DJ Robin Schulz, "Miss You."
