junodream have returned today with their brand new single "The Beach"
Dream rock four-piece junodream have returned today with their enrapturing new single "The Beach" which is their first new music since Travel Guide – their 2021 EP.
Speaking of the track, vocalist Ed Vyvyan says: “I was on a beach in Aberystwyth with some friends. Llanrhystud beach is not a forgiving place. Grey stone as far as the eye can see. It was overcast and windy. We were sheltering behind a rock wall we had built up so the BBQ didn’t die out. I had recently received some sad family news and was feeling out of sorts, I didn’t really want to be there. I got up and started walking along the coast. The way Llanrhystud curves makes the horizon seem much closer than it really is as I found out after about 40 minutes of walking into the distance."
"I think my friends called out to me at the start of this weird quest, but I just had to reach the end of the curve. Each step away, I started to feel a little lighter in my chest," he continues. "Eventually, I got to the furthest point where the shore stuck into the sea and stood there, alone, looking out as the sun peaked a bit from behind the clouds. I felt peaceful then. That’s basically what "The Beach" is about; finding a place of mental calm, a metaphor for the real calm I found on Llanrhystud. I joke at gigs that I hate that beach, but really it was the perfect remedy."
"The Beach" is out now via AWAL.
