Sydney Minsky Sargeant has shared a new track 'Summer Song' from his debut solo album 'Lunga'
Co-produced with Alex Greaves, the record traces years from teenage beginnings.
Sydney Minsky Sargeant has released 'Summer Song', the third track from his forthcoming debut solo album 'Lunga'.
Despite its title, 'Summer Song' offsets pastoral imagery with psychedelic guitars and synths. On the track, he sings, "Come round another time / In another life / And maybe I won’t feel death’s in my stride".
Talking about the song, Syd says: "It evokes the longing to be taken away from my self and the habits I once had of thinking in certain ways that felt unavoidable."
'Lunga' is Minsky Sargeant’s first album under his own name. Its 12 songs were written over a period of years, beginning in his teens in Todmorden, West Yorkshire, and following a chronology to the present day. The record, co-produced with long-time collaborator Alex Greaves, features Minsky Sargeant on most instruments, with drowsy, ethereal textures and touches that nod towards Nick Drake, Bert Jansch, Bon Iver, Bill Callahan, and Robert Kirby’s string arrangements.
