Sweeter Than Sunshine, the debut single by Angel Interceptor on Desafinado Records, brings forward a charming mix of wistfulness and freshness through a well detailed sound. After relocating from Stockholm to Los Angeles to study film, vocalist Bridget Olsson met guitarist Damon Cox at the Echoplex in Echo Park which was where their shared passion for atmospheric and cinematic sounds took shape.
The project's first single is a fine blend of dreamy shoegaze and indie pop melancholy, carried by ethereal vocals and echoing, reverberated guitar work. The track radiates an inviting warmth while capturing a sun-soaked, bittersweet atmosphere.
Genial as its title, Sweeter Than Sunshine balances the thrill of starting anew with the soft ache of memories which seem out of reach.
