It’s a little grey and gloomy around my part of the country, but outfit are bringing the sunshine with their soulful debut single “sunny.” This cool bop from the Perth trio is so catchy, don’t be surprised if you’re humming it for the rest of the day. Tim Tan wrote the track after struggling to fall asleep.
“The concept surrounded the sentiment of ‘I woke up, but in a way I guess I could have kept sleeping’ describing the cyclical nature of day to day life at the time,” he explained. “We were in between houses, work in the music industry took a dive due to the pandemic and really we just needed a light at the end of the tunnel to move closer to. From there the song grew into a full concept dealing with issues around mental health and finding comfort in what and who you have around you to collectively move towards the sunnier, sunnier, sunnier place.”
Outfit might be brand new, but these guys are no strangers to the music industry. Tim’s songwriting work for local acts Jaguar Jonze and Enschway and K-Pop acts aespa and ENHYPHEN has accumulated around 200 million streams and more than 3 million physical unit sales. No wonder this track is such an earworm!
