‘Tangerine Beach’ by Mother Sun | New Album, ‘Train of Thought’
Canadian psych quartet Mother Sun recently announced a brand new LP entitled ‘Train of Thought’, due October 28 via Earth Libraries, as well as the band’s own small label, Kamloops BC-based Divine Bovine Records. Today, they have shared ‘Tangerine Beach’, the latest single off the record, in addition to the track’s accompanying music video.
Speaking on the track, the band wrote: “‘Tangerine Beach’ and its video tell the story of an optimistic vacationer, played by Nathan, whose trip is thwarted by expectations of paradise. Arriving at the beach, many margaritas in hand, Nathan loses a lens to the sunglasses shading him from the reality of his surroundings”.
‘Train of Thought’, the third full length release by Mother Sun, is a 12 song day trip through an overstimulated frame of mind. Using 60’s and 70’s psych pop, garage rock, jazz and soul as a jumping off point, the band refined their modern eclectic storytelling through lush and adventurous arrangements, highlighted by abstract hooks, velvety strings and triumphant horns.
The record was recorded primarily live off the floor at Little Red Sounds Studio in Vancouver BC by producer Felix Fung. On the record, Mother Sun teamed up with a variety of musicians from their hometown of Kamloops BC, notably a string quartet from the Kamloops Symphony Orchestra. Horn arrangements written by two members of the band were performed by Vancouver based musicians Anita Eccleston and Mike WT Allen.
