Phoenician Drive legt nieuwe ep voor

Op 23 juni brengt Exag Records 'Glow' op de markt.

Valérien Meunier, gitarist en zanger van Phoenician Drive, legt uit hoe dat zit: "This 'Glow' EP is the group's relaunch record after the lockdown phase and the acoustic phase that followed the pandemic. Indeed, between 2020 and 2022 the band mainly played their repertoire in acoustic format, without amplification, without microphones. They learned to sing together in choir, and that strongly reunited the group. This new electric album is therefore particularly important, it corresponds to a return to the longer and freer format specific to their beginnings, but in a decidedly more pop direction, with new instruments (mainly synthesizers) and new, brighter musical colors."

Voor de opnames en productie schakelde Phoenician Drive Thomas Stadnicki in, een jonge Brusselaar, waarmee de band binnen de eigen vertrouwde omgeving bleef. "Until now we had always recorded liv', all in the same room, so we tried to work differently for this EP. The recording sessions were spread over several months, and for the first time we were able to really take the time in the studio to take care of the details", legt Meunier verder uit.

Kunstenaar en vriend Laurent Poisson verzorgde het artwork.
