NYC alt-rock risers Native Sun release their scintillating ‘Off With Our Heads’ EP, out today (October 14th) via NYC indie label Grand Jury (Hippo Campus, Hovvdy, Samia, Twin Peaks, Jordana).
Harkening back to a time when rock n' roll meant something, the group have not only reinvigorated, but conquered the New York music scene. Their livewire local gigs are simultaneously welcoming and rowdy and made them a can’t-miss fixture of city nightlife - with several tour supports ticked off alongside the likes of White Reaper and Geese, as well as dates with acts including Sunflower Bean, Bodega, Gustaf, and Wavves.
Speaking ahead of their EP release, which follows lead tracks 'Sister', 'There's Revolution' and latest cut ‘When She’, the band revealed: “‘Resistance by audio. Instinctive observations, situations, and experiences reflecting the confused nature of our current world and what we go through by being part of it whether it be voluntarily or (usually) involuntarily. Integral themes that come out and live inside the songs are self-reflection, death and the change it brings, social unrest, loss of affection, anxiety as hypochondria, and twisted love letters to New York City, it’s history, and artists such as David Wojnarowicz, Jim Carroll, & William S Burroughs. Sonically clever and sly backdrops to timeless rock n’ roll that combines the full sound of bands like The Rolling Stones, The Who with the streetsmart attitude of the likes of The Ramones, Velvet Underground, and The Stooges…through our own voice empowered by the will to make music against all hostility.”
Teaming with revered indie label Grand Jury for their brand new EP, the quartet are primed to build on their early press acclaim (The FADER, So Young, DIY, The Independent), with a full live run this autumn including a date at NYC’s iconic Irving Plaza with FIDLAR, in addition to their own EP launch show at legendary Brooklyn venue Baby’s All Right.
Produced by Walter Schreifels (Rival Schools, Gorilla Biscuits, Quicksand) and mixed by Jeremy Snyder (Fontaines D.C., IDLES), Native Sun’s ‘Off With Our Heads’ (EP) is out now via Grand Jury and available on all digital platforms.
Native Sun is Daniel Gomez (singer/guitarist), Jake Pflum (guitarist), Justin Berry (bassist), Nico Espinosa (drummer)
