The single follows their earlier release, “Ceiling Tiles” / “Tower of Song (in the key of JAMC)”, and comes ahead of their sophomore album, set for autumn release.
The band members of Sun Atoms are Peter G. Holmström on bass and guitar, Jsun Atoms handling vocals and guitar, June Kang as a multi-instrumentalist, Mars de Ponte on guitar and keys, Eric Rubalcava on drums, and Derek Spencer Longoria-Gomez on guitar and vocals.
They debuted in 2021 with the album “Let There Be Light”, produced by Peter G. Holmström and mixed by iconic producer Stephen Street (Blur, The Smiths, The Cranberries), involving contributions by The Black Angels’ Alex Maas, The Vandelles’ Jasno Swarez and Gregg Williams (Sheryl Crow, Blitzen Trapper).
