Savory Sundays by SUNDAYS

The fruits of corona gets harvested with a juicy and self-produced spring single, that exhibits new musical brush strokes from the danish indie folk group.

The Copenhagen based group, SUNDAYS, have kept their listeners waiting with new material to succeed the internationally acclaimed 'Inner Coasts' from March 2021. The album primarily contained songs written in the wake of the debut, and although the corona pandemic was raging across the planet, the band kept their minds fixed on releasing the album in the eye of the storm - risking their chance to tour the songs anytime soon. However, the national restrictions had the side effect of making a path for writing new material. Songwriter Magnus Jacobsen sheds some light on the period: "Savory Sundays is the first song I wrote after the batch for Inner Coasts. The calm and stillness I found at my cottage during the forst lockdown, made this song almost write itself. It hit some new strings, which turned out to be a fruitful source to my songwriting".

Shorty after the release of Inner Coasts, the band had to part with guitarist, Victor Ovesen, but the remaining trio consisting of Marie Linander (bas), Morten Falk (drums) and Magnus Jacobsen (vocals and guitar) strongly believed in the new songs, and their own abilities to create a solid space for the sound that Savory Sundays played a great part in defining. The single is produced by the band itself and mixed by Nick Korzi out of Pittsburgh (US). "The lyrics circle the thoughts of the striving artist in the constant aim and struggle to climb the career ladder, and it illuminates that little voice in the ears that tells if you're not doing enough to make it happen".

// If you know everything, you don't know anything at all //

"The song is a reminder to myself about why I make music. First and foremost, it must be a joyful and free space for me and the wonderful people I share the music with. The whole push-yourself-harder attitude I've had towards myself for years, is buried in the past now". The single furthermore initiates a collaboration with danish painter, Kathrine Milner, with whom the band have long dreamed of working with. As the creator of the groups visual identity, morten elaborates: "We have followed Kathrines magnificent work for a long time, and truly feel that her style corresponds perfectly with the music we're making now".

Savory Sundays releases on March 3, as the first outlet towards SUNDAYS' upcoming album, 'Giant Formula', which the band is working hard to finalize, for the completion of their album trilogy. Meanwhile, this brand new spring single will meet its audience on a few selected shows in 2023: 11/3 Herlev Community House (Cph), 26/8 Hook & Cook (Thorup Strand) and 15/9 Nashville Nights in Odense.

Sundays is a new spark from the Danish underground scene, centering North Jutlandic Magnus Jacobsen on vocals and guitar.

Intensity, melody and nerve are the keystones which manifests in the young songwriters universe, and with a live setup involving vast amounts of backing harmonics in an organic instrumentation, this is exactly what the spectator can expect.
