Greenwald, Alex Alex Greenwald is an American actor, singer, songwriter, and record producer. He is best known as the lead singer and primary songwriter of the band Phantom Planet. He has also had roles in various films and television shows. Greenwald has released solo albums under his own name, produced records for other artists, and contributed to film soundtracks.
Alex Greenwald famously covered Radiohead’s “Just” with Mark Ronson, so it’s (ahem) no surprise that his band busted out some Radiohead Wednesday night in Jersey City. At White Eagle Hall, Phantom Planet started their headlining set by playing through their underrated Dave Fridmann-produced 2004 self-titled album (i.e., not the one with “California”). They then got into all kinds of exploits, including an impromptu cover of “Paranoid Android,” the gnarled prog epic from OK Computer. According to the setlist they played some “Airbag” first, but we only have video of “Paranoid Android,” so watch that below.
