Grand Sun is a happy accident: part intentional exercise, part catharsis. Their shows are urgent and electric. Their music is hinged on themes of existentialism and whimsy and three years after their last record – Sal y Amore – the band has changed. In spirit, they’re still the same lads, but they’re ready to conceptualize new sonic paths on their sophomore record to be released in 2024. In their latest singles, “Something More" and „Conceptualize“, the Lisbon based band sees itself riding a post-punk wave, where the gothic and the dreamy side of bands like Echo & the Bunnymen, The Chameleons and Cocteau Twins influence them, and they look towards the UK as a reference point, taking influence from modern bands like THUS LOVE and Shame revealing a new identity for their rock’n’roll. More creative, more punk, no less (somewhat) naïve, no less (very) youthful. Now, with “Something More”, their latest single, they showcase their newfound maturity. They grew up a little bit more, bear in mind. They are in search for something extra. And they’ve found it. – Miguel Rocha
