Reviews and Comments

"Sliding between different genres while still grabbing that marguerita in its hand, Sourface’s music exudes summer.” Clunk Magazine

“What they have created is a reminder that things don’t have to be bleak, that the sun is just around the corner.” Joyzine

“Their fresh take on life and music is a glimmer of light in the gloom” Rodeo

“Drawing from Bossa Nova, jazz, synth fusion and more, their music boasts a range of genres that come together to create songs with hints of hope, melancholy, and not to mention, hard-hitting French spoken word.” Last Bus Magazine

Offering an unlikely, yet infectious, amalgam of French Jazz-fusion and razor-sharp indie-pop. Anglo-Parisian quartet Sourface bring the psych-funk sunshine on new single 'Solaire'

Channeling the funky fusions of 70s jazz legends Cortex, and the lysergic French indie of La Femme in the process - 'Solaire' offers an irruptive fairground-ride of flaring synths, bundling drums and an ice-cool French-language vocal.

Recorded at the band's self-made Babylon Studio during last summer's heatwave, Sourface salute the star of our solar system with techni-colour giddyiness of colour and light. Acting as a manifesto of sorts, the track offers a prelude for forthcoming narrative saga 'The Eternal Summer', a song sequence celebrating sunlight, abundance and positivity, while exploring the dangers of having such things stripped away from us.

Offering more on the track, band say simply this."‘Solaire’ is an ode to sun and its power as both a giver and destroyer of life. Longue vie à l’astre solaire."

Formed in North London during the rupture of the pandemic as a means of channelling hope, manifesting their lives and looking to the future, the four-piece, now split between Paris and London, regularly perform in both cities, sing in both respective languages, infected by the spirit of both distinctive cultures.

Having cemented their reputation for electic fusions of buoyant funk, new-wave, soul and jazz with a clutch of EPs in recent years - garnering the favour of indie press stalwarts Clunk, Joyzine, Rodeo, Wax and Last Bus Magazine, as well as support slots with Cassia and Boyish - ‘Solaire' offers the latest irresistible immersion into the band’s dance-ridden carnival of comic-book colours and unswerving positivity.
