During live performances, Alex G is joined by his longtime backing band, which features Sam Acchione (guitar), John Heywood (bass) and Tom Kelly (drums).

He later signed with Lucky Number, who reissued his earlier releases, Rules and Trick (2012). In 2015, he signed with Domino Recording Company and released his sixth studio album, Beach Music. He followed it in 2017 with Rocket, which received further acclaim and recognition. Giannascoli's eighth studio album, House of Sugar, was released in 2019. In 2022, Alex scored American director Jane Schoenbrun's film We're All Going to the World's Fair, and later released his ninth album, God Save the Animals.
