Biography
Sun & The Rain Men came about as a natural consequence of four musicians wanting to create indie folk pop in the same place at the same time. They locked themselves in a remote countryside studio and spent long days and nights writing and recording. Sanne’s stunning and timeless voice naturally became the heart of the music, beautifully complemented by Erik, Kalle and Jerry’s talented and detailed musicianship and production. Most of the songs were recorded in just one take, and a plethora of unusual methods were employed in the unrestrained creative process: drums were recorded in an open field, capturing the sounds of birds flying overhead, vocals in a village hall, luscious strings were recorded an ocean or a lake away. The band continued writing songs. They broke guitar strings, brought out a mandolin. A tambourine practically recorded itself out of sheer excitement! The music evolved into something wonderfully unique yet reassuringly familiar.
Sun & The Rain Men are now ready to share their rhythmic and quirky folkpop.
