A gorgeous hit of soulful surf-rock this morning from Sydney/South Coast six-piece Sun Sap, as they drop their rollicking new single ‘Hanging Hearts’.
Described by the band as “a bit of a look at lovers, at life and the ups and downs that comes with it,” it’s only the second track we’ve heard from then band who marked their emergence onto the scene with recent tune ‘Mexico’, bringing with them an intoxicating concoction of surf and garage rock, dusted with some honky-tonk quirks.
Having returned from time apart only to escape together to their drummer Shaun Gaida’s coastal farm, the band spent their time honing their craft and laying down tracks. Recorded by Shaun and mixed by Timothy R Dunn (Kirin J Callanan, Frowning Clouds, Straight Arrows) at Hanging Tree Studios, they’ve put together an impressive emergence from their seclusion that’s seen them support a host of great acts so far, including US garage rockers Guantanamo Baywatch, Australia (the band) and The Pretty Littles.
If you’re feeling it, you can still catch them supporting Food Court and Polish Club on December 10 at Rad in Wollongong, and be sure to keep an eye out for their debut record, due in 2017.
