(Photo credit: Mia Della Ragione) "Made up of old souls in photogenic forms, this teenage psychedelic rock trio mixes metal-influenced guitar squall with Arctic New Wave vocals..." - New York Times "Four minutes of dark psychedelic sludge and sunny melody from the rising New York band, sort of like Black Sabbath covering the Kinks." - Rolling Stone "...this band is full of surprises and shifts. There's an exhilarating feeling seeing this band live; I got the impression that they even surprised each other during the performance." - NPR's All Songs Considered (Bob Boilen's Top 10 Discoveries From The 2014 CMJ Music Marathon) "...a fine-tuned ear for faded garage and psych sounds: melodic riffs, little shrieks, noisy smears of feedback sludge." - The FADER "The teenage rock scene has gotten a lot grungier and a bit more glam these days thanks to Brooklyn trio Sunflower Bean." - NYMag.com   Brooklyn-based neo-psych rock trio Sunflower Bean are gearing up for their first-ever label release, a 7" coming out on Fat Possum on July 24th, and today they release a new song entitled "The Stalker." The hard-hitting track is the forthcoming single's b-side, and follows the sublime, previously released a-side "I Hear Voices." PRESS HERE to listen to the "The Stalker" exclusively via The FADER and HERE to listen to "I Hear Voices." PRESS HERE to pre-order the 7". Sunflower Bean will play a single release show in Brooklyn on July 30th at Rough Trade.PRESS HERE to purchase tickets for the band's only upcoming NYC show on the books right now. Following the release of their singular debut EP Show Me Your Seven Secrets earlier this year, Sunflower Bean have been a word of mouth phenomenon. The band has spent the last year bringing their raw, high-energy performances to venues across the U.S., opening for the likes of Best Coast, DIIV, Cherry Glazerr, Wolf Alice and more. They also had one of the break-out performances at the UK's Great Escape during their European tour, earning themselves the #1 slot on NME's list of Bands Who Ruled The Great Escape 2015. Drawing from a wealth of rugged lo-fi sounds, they have adapted the heroic charisma of VU psychedelia and Black Sabbath's dark rock to fit their own generation's drowsy indie ethos. Sunflower Bean are: Julia Cumming (vocals / bass), Nick Kivlen (vocals / guitar) & Jacob Faber (drums).
