Sunflower Bean share details of forthcoming project, SHAKE
New York trio Sunflower Bean—vocalist and bassist Julia Cumming, guitarist and vocalist Nick Kivlen, and drummer Olive Faber — have announced their first fully self-produced and recorded project, SHAKE.
“SHAKE was inspired by our first years as a DIY band, the spirit that birthed us and gave us the chance to have this enduring journey together,” Sunflower Bean explain of the EP. “We wrote, recorded, engineered, and produced these songs so nothing was filtered through anyone else’s idea of us. We always felt like rock and roll was a feeling, not a sound. But sometimes there is no subverting it or explaining it. We're now offering it exactly as it occurred to us.”
The band will release a 14-minute performance based video to showcase each track via an interpretation of the natural elements: earth, wind, water, fire, and metal. To achieve this, Sunflower Bean worked with Isaac Roberts, a young, rising director from Toronto. The band shares the first chapter ‘earth’, with the video for title track and lead single “Shake”.
SHAKE, is set for release on 27 September via Lucky Number, and is available to pre-order now.
