Sleepy Sun

It’s their first album with new members Rachel Fannan (Sleepy Sun) and Adam Bulgasem (Dommengang, Soft Kill), and it also features contributions from Kliph Scurlock (Flaming Lips), Kid Millions (Oneida), and John Congleton.

The track was produced by Sune Rose Wagner of The Raveonetes and is part of Instant Love which takes classic love songs traditionally sung by men about women, reimagining them with female vocalists to “make a statement about love between women as mothers, sisters, friends, lovers and everything in between.”
