about

Sundazed by The Green Tambourine Band is an album inspired above all by nature, the cyclical change of the seasons, the inherent symmetry and geometry in nature, the fundamental truth of our known dimensions and then beyond. Perfect circle music. Musically from beginning to end there are recurring motifs and themes throughout, if we imagine the album in a physical space it can be folded upon itself in various ways, each song has a partner in the symmetrical whole...but we will let you work that out for yourselves. Most importantly, beyond grand concepts is the music and it's a big development upon the sound of The Green Tambourine Band's first album ...Let Yourself Be / Aum. That album also explored symmetry and repeated motifs within a whole and Sundazed is a maximilist progression of this basic idea.

From the beginning the album was conceived as a work of maximalism, pushing the Tascam 388, an 8 track tape machine to its outer limits. Overdubs upon overdubs were recorded and the tracks shaped, formed, altered until they revealed themselves to their full potential. In the initial tracking sessions of 2014 and 2015 many of the tracks were recorded up to 30 times to achieve 'the one'. This base layer of music was then used as the foundation for the songs and the productions were then sculpted and completed by Jack Burns over the next 6 years, across various studio spaces. The record was not rushed in any way, it was given time and allowed to reveal itself. Come In / Come Out is our closing track on the record for good reason, it's also the oldest song on the record. Written at the age of 18 by Jack and Liam. It's the perfect way to end the record and lyrically encompasses all the themes featured throughout the album. Beginnings and endings.

Come in, Come out.
