SUN GIANT EP

Lancaster based boys SUN GIANT are a psychedelic trio who could make the elderly feel young. Their sound brings eternal youth and powerful vibes.

    These guys have a sound similar to Hendrix himself and the vocals have an Alex turner feel about them. After hearing their older music such as 'Yuletide' and 'Angel Woman' I was expecting some decent music but they went above and beyond what I had in mind. They recently supported bands such as Drenge and To Kill a King and their ability is astonishing. With bands such as Temples bringing psychedelic music back under the radar and many aspiring psych artists such as SUN GIANT, i sense beautiful things on the horizon for the psych genre.

    Although the band has three members the new self titled EP only consists of lead vocalist/guitarist Liam Fairclough and backing vocalist/drummer Tomas Walmsley (not to be confused with Thomas Walmsley of Temples). The EP has three songs, each as catchy as the next. Although one song in particular stands out for me. 'When will it be worth it' is two minutes of punchy riffs and drums, followed by two minutes and ten seconds of relaxing vocals, resulting in a very trippy record and two minutes and ten seconds of pure gold. Tomas' spontaneous approach to drumming paired with Liam's crazy guitar skills is a match made in musical heaven.

     I cannot wait to see what they've got in-store for us in the near future and now that they're being recognized the only way is up. Keep an eye out for them as they're going to be very successful very soon. They're bringing back psychedelia and it's about bloody time. 

    We are here. Where are you?
