Sunday Sun “DAY” EP
The Amsterdam band Sunday Sun comes out with it’s second EP. “DAY” once again highlights those gorgeous harmonies on “Ordinary Love” and “Now Is Now.” The sweep of the compositions are grander than the first EP, for example “Summer Holiday” has a fast guitar rhythm with handclaps building layer upon layer of drums and vocals. The slow ballad “You” tones things down quite a bit, but the band roars back with “Take A Left,” a 70’s inspired funk-rock song. Fans of Sonic Executive Sessions and The Beach Boys need look no further, and combined the 2 eps make a top ten LP in my opinion. And a free one for the next 2 weeks! No excuses, just get it.
Free on Bandcamp for 2 weeks only!
Fernando Perdomo “Home Is Wherever You Are” EP
Mr. Perdomo ( Dreaming In Stereo ) is a strong singer/songwriter/producer and with a delicate piano and strum, Fernando brings us orchestral pop with sweeping strings on the opener “Home.” Its a nod to both Burt Bacharach and Nick Drake, expressing both beauty and sadness. The another great song “Smile” is a sweet affirmation similar in tone to the grandiose hit “We Are Young” by Fun. “Fill My Sky” is another winner and the love song “In A World Without You” is both moving and brief, with a catchy “do do do” coda. If you love chamber pop and a change of pace from guitar heavy rock, this will do the trick.
The 2 Sunday Sun EPs are the best free music I’ve gotten in years. Thanks for the heads up!
