Soda Sun "Beachwood" Video Premiere

[Repost from Blood Makes Noise; by Joe Pugsley, May 3, 2021]

Soda Sun is an indie rock band from Tucson AZ, whose sound is relaxed, heartfelt and atmospheric. Blood Makes Noise is stoked to host the premiere of their new video “Beachwood”, the first single from their upcoming debut album “Stay Here”, to be released via Fort Lowell Records digitally on July 2 and on a vinyl LP on October 1. Scenic views interspersed throughout the video capture the nostalgic and longing vibes of the song. “You are a great mountain range that I keep seeing in different ways.. you are the heart, the blood of my life..” Soda Sun sings as the band members finally emerge in the video around the 3-minute mark. Chill indie reminiscent of the likes of Elliot Smith, Small Factory and other 90s bands mark Soda Sun’s sound, as this debut song gives us a taste of what’s to come on the upcoming full length. This seems to be a love song by the line in the chorus singing to the “blood of my life”, but you get the feeling it may or may not be a romantic love that is being spoken about -  perhaps it is the imagery in the video that gives a familial feel to the aesthetic, but music is best interpreted by the listener anyway. Soda Sun are a new band with a developing sound that bodes well for an intriguing future. Check out the video and look for the full album July 2.
