SUNRAY
BABY HONEY EP (STRAWBERRY REC.)
"Baby Honey EP", SUNRAY's first collection of new material since 2007's critically-acclaimed 'Tomorrow' LP, sees Jon Chambers joined by Justin Morey and Bob Bhamra (Data 70, West Norwood Cassette Library).The 4-track promotional disc kicks off with a reworking of the Pastels' drone-pop classic 'Baby Honey', here driven by buzz-saw guitar and pounding percussion to deliver a heavy dose of neo-psych.
Also featured are three original Chambers' compositions, including the 'Sister Ray'-style jam 'Super Casino', the pastoral lament 'Leaves That Were Green' and finally 'Tears at Sunrise', a raga-flavoured instrumental hinged on a chiming 12-string Byrds hook.Sunray's 'Baby Honey EP' will be supported by a series of UK gigs, before the band begin work on their third LP in early 2011.
