▌░ ░▐
▌░ Regret pop from Austin, TX. ░▐
▌░ ░▐
▌░ The five members of Sun June spent their early years spread ░▐
▌░ out across the United States, from the boonies of the Hudson ░▐
▌░ Valley to the sprawling outskirts of LA. Having spent their ░▐
▌░ college years within the gloomy, cold winters of the North ░▐
▌░ East, Laura Colwell and Stephen Salisbury found themselves in ░▐
▌░ the vibrant melting-pot of inspiration that is Austin, Texas. ░▐
▌░ Meeting each other while working on Terrence MalickÆs æSong ░▐
▌░ to SongÆ, the pair were immediately taken by the cityÆs ░▐
▌░ bustling small clubs and honky-tonk scene, and the fact that ░▐
▌░ there was always an instrument within reach, always someone ░▐
▌░ to play alongside. ░▐
▌░ ░▐
▌░ Coming alive in this newly discovered landscape, Colwell and ░▐
▌░ Salisbury formed Sun June alongside Michael Bain on lead ░▐
▌░ guitar, Sarah Schultz on drums, and Justin Harris on bass and ░▐
▌░ recorded their debut album live to tape, releasing it via the ░▐
▌░ cityÆs esteemed Keeled Scales label in 2018. The band coined ░▐
▌░ the term æregret popÆ to describe the music they made on the ░▐
▌░ æYearsÆ LP. Though somewhat tongue in cheek, it made perfect ░▐
▌░ sense ~ the gentle sway of their country leaning pop songs ░▐
▌░ seeped in melancholy, as if each subtle turn of phrase was ░▐
▌░ always grasping for something just out of reach. ░▐
▌░ ░▐
▌░ Sun June returns with Somewhere, a brand new album, out ░▐
▌░ February 2021. ItÆs a record that feels distinctly more ░▐
▌░ present than its predecessor. In the time since, Colwell and ░▐
▌░ Salisbury have become a couple, and itÆs had a profound ░▐
▌░ effect on their work; if Years was about how loss evolves, ░▐
▌░ Somewhere is about how love evolves. ôWe explore a lot of the ░▐
▌░ same themes across it,ö Colwell says, ôbut I think there's a ░▐
▌░ lot more love here.ö ░▐
▌░ ░▐
▌░ Somewhere is Sun June at their most decadent, a richly ░▐
▌░ diverse album which sees them exploring bright new corners ░▐
▌░ with full hearts and wide eyes. Embracing a more pop-oriented ░▐
▌░ sound the album consists of eleven beautiful new songs and is ░▐
▌░ deliberately more collaborative and fully arranged: Laura ░▐
▌░ played guitar for the first time; band members swapped ░▐
▌░ instruments, and producer Danny Reisch helped flesh out ░▐
▌░ layers of synth and percussion that provides a sweeping ░▐
▌░ undercurrent to the whole thing. ░▐
▌░ ░▐
▌░ Throughout Somewhere you can hear Sun June blossom into a ░▐
▌░ living-and-breathing five-piece, the album formed from an ░▐
▌░ exploratory track building process which results in a more ░▐
▌░ formidable version of the band we once knew. ÆReal ThingÆ is ░▐
▌░ most indicative of this, a fully collaborative effort which ░▐
▌░ encompasses all of the nuances that come to define the album. ░▐
▌░ ôAre you the real thing?ö Laura Colwell questions in the ░▐
▌░ songÆs repeated refrain. ôHoney IÆm the real thing,ö she ░▐
▌░ answers back. ░▐
▌░ TheyÆve called this one their æpromÆ record; a sincere, ░▐
▌░ alive-in-the-moment snapshot of the heady rush of love. ôThe ░▐
▌░ prom idea started as a mood for us to arrange and shape the ░▐
▌░ music to, which we hadnÆt done before,ö the band explains. ô ░▐
▌░ Prom isnÆt all rosy and perfect. The songs show you the ░▐
▌░ crying in the bathroom,, the fear of dancing, the joy of a ░▐
▌░ kiss - all the highs and all the lows.ö ░▐
▌░ ░▐
▌░ ItÆs in both those highs and lows where Somewhere comes ░▐
▌░ alive. Laura ColwellÆs voice is mesmerising throughout, and ░▐
▌░ while the record is a document of falling in love, thereÆs ░▐
▌░ still room for her to wilt and linger, the vibrancy of the ░▐
▌░ production creating beautiful contrasts for her voice to ░▐
▌░ pull us through. Opening track æBad With TimeÆ sets this tone ░▐
▌░ from the outset, both dark and mysterious, sad and sultry as ░▐
▌░ it fascinatingly unrolls. "I didnÆt mean what I said,ö ░▐
▌░ Colwell sings. ôBut I wanted you to think I did.ö ░▐
▌░ ░▐
▌░ Somewhere showcases a gentle but eminently pronounced ░▐
▌░ maturation of Sun JuneÆs sound, a second record full of quiet ░▐
▌░ revelation, eleven songs that bristle with love and longing. ░▐
▌░ It finds a band at the height of their collective potency, a ░▐
▌░ marked stride forward from the band that created that debut ░▐
▌░ record, but also one that once again is able to transport the ░▐
▌░ listener into a fascinating new landscape, one that lies ░▐
▌░ somewhere between the town and the city, between the head and ░▐
▌░ the heart; neither here nor there, but certainly somewhere. ░▐
