Aloe Blacc, a Grammy-nominated singer and songwriter, is known for his uplifting and empowering music. His genre-defying hits include “Wake Me Up” with Avicii, “The Man,” and “I Need A Dollar,” showcasing his role as a changemaker in the industry.

In 2024, he was named one of Worth Magazine’s Worthy 100 for his influential work in music and social impact.

Now, in 2025, Aloe Blacc returns with his most mission-driven work to date: a new full-length album titled Stand Together. Featuring the standout singles “Don’t Go Alone” and “One Good Thing,” the album draws deep inspiration from real-life stories—those of nonprofit founders, humanitarians, and everyday heroes dedicated to making lasting change in their communities. Stand Together is both a celebration and a call to action, with Blacc’s signature soul and sincerity woven into every note. 

Following the album’s release, Aloe is back on the global stage, embarking on a sweeping tour across the United States. and Europe. The run kicked off with a sold-out residency at New York’s legendary Blue Note, and it will continue spanning festivals and venues through October 2025. 

This October also marks a milestone in Aloe’s career: the 15-year anniversary of his breakthrough album Good Things, and its iconic single “I Need A Dollar”—a song that remains a rallying cry for working people everywhere. 

Aloe Blacc’s performance is on Friday, August 8, at 7:30 pm at the Ridgefield Playhouse. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit https://ridgefieldplayhouse.org.
