Los Angeles based Active Child is pleased to announce the release of his debut album You Are All I See on August 23 via Vagrant Records. The album was produced by Ariel Rechtshaid and features 10 new tracks. The album comes as a follow-up to last year's critically-acclaimed Curtis Lane EP.

One of those tracks, "Playing House," is a collaboration with lo-fi r&b singer How To Dress Well and was recently premiered on Pitchfork. Listen to the song over at Active Child's website, www.activechildmusic.com. Pitchfork Media reviewed Active Child track "Wilderness," giving it a rating of 8/10 and comparing Grossi's "trembling falsetto" to that of Bon Iver's Justin Vernon and Antony of Antony and the Johnsons. The review went on to say that ACTIVE CHILD's mixed-genre work "is a good example of the positive results to be yielded from a musician straddling two disparate styles" and "pulls from different directions but still manages to aim forward.".

The Fader praised the song highly, noting "The cascading piano line that introduces this duet is too perfect, spiraling like an Alice in Wonderland techno-trip into fantasy R&B, like spelunking the deep internet without a safety USB cord. Pairing bedroom falsetto connoisseurs Active Child and How to Dress Well, "Playing House" rivals heights of collaborative Auto-warble last seen in Kanye‘s weird work with Bon Iver. The boys always threaten to take homage over-the-top, but "Playing House" is undeniable magic."

Active Child is the musical project from choirboy-turned-indie pop musician Pat Grossi. He recently finished up an east coast tour supporting James Blake. His debut collection of songs featured the skilled use of various 80s-tinged synths to create ethereal, soaring soundscapes, punctuated by crisp electronic drum samples and handclaps. All of this lays the groundwork for Grossi's exquisite vocals, which, with their unearthly sound and evocative lyrics, take on an enchanting, hymnal quality that would not be out of place amongst the richly colored sunlight of a church's stained-glass interior.
