About 'Sunday, Someday'
'Sunday, Someday' is a compilation album created by a group of like-minded friends and musicians from the UK, Pennsylvania, and Los Angeles. They began meeting virtually every Sunday from April 2020 onward after the tour they were supposed to go on together was canceled due to the pandemic.
The group is comprised of the alt/punk band Nervus (UK), the pop/rock trio Potty Mouth (LA), the indie/folk/punk songwriter KOJI (PA), the singer/songwriter Solstice Rey (PA), the multimedia artist Full on Mone't (PA), as well as crew members who would have been on the tour. They decided to put together a record to fund top surgery and aftercare for a member of the group while raising awareness about the systemic oppression of QTPOC community members. "We're in a space where we gather on a regular basis, even though we're separated geographically," says KOJI of the group. "But our relationality isn't institutional. It's loving and reciprocal. And we're able to inhabit ourselves more fully than we are in other music spaces that we've experienced."
The group wants to acknowledge the history of organizing and social movements, and how creative communities can go about the work of community care and mutual aid. In order to manifest liberated futures, they must be imagined - and this group has provided space for their collective imagination, with this record as a result. "This is not a record of and for the music industry," says KOJI. "This record is a celebration of living in community and a project that asks what world is possible when everyone's needs are met?"
About Potty Mouth
Fair warning: Don't invite Potty Mouth to your house party unless you're ready for a night of spontaneous karaoke and outrageous prank phone calls. The high-energy pop/rock trio originally formed in 2011 in a Northampton, MA basement after growing tired of watching the dudes have all the fun on stage.
The group, which consists of Abby Weems (lead vocals/guitar), Ally Einbinder
(bass), and Victoria Mandanas (drums/vocals), now calls Los Angeles their home. And since their formation, they've released two LPs and two EPs, all of which are heavily influenced by '90s rock and early 2000s movies such as Josie and the Pussycats. Weems loves donuts and makes a lot of silly faces. Einbinder is obsessed with cats and hops around onstage in platform shoes. Mandanas doesn't say much at first-but when she does, you bet your ass she means it.
The group's latest LP, 'SNAFU,' was released in 2019 on Get Better Records.
