"I want to know about a feeling"
The oscillating dream theater of "Try" by the Japanese trio BROTHER SUN SISTER MOON running on an intoxicating and infectious musical diorama of measured simple synth and guitar downbeats, walking groovy bass lines, a combination of double time staccato and amazing fluid guitar impressions and falsetto vox that make me think of early MGMT (a bit). The musicality here is so very smile inducing, the production so damn engaging in it's lovely dreamy way.
BROTHER SUN SISTER MOON are Shohei Megumi (guitar /vox), Yusuke Okada (drums) and Ayu Megumi (Bass /vox) from Osaka (Japan).

Shohei Megumi (Gt&Vo), Yusuke Okada (Dr) and Ayu Megumi (Ba&Vo) founded the indie pop band BROTHER SUN SISTER MOON in August 2017, in Osaka (Japan).
Two voices of very different colors, singing in English, blend into a very open sound, adding their own peculiar and crooked angle to the universality of pop. Clearly inspired by Western indie, their music is much more than that, easily tickling the ears of listeners from various backgrounds.
The lyrics, co-written by the brother and sister Megumi, depict with a rich expressiveness the complexity of the heart, and how it underlies the inherent loneliness of people, the beauty of looking for someone to heal this solitude, the feeling of love.
The three members of BROTHER SUN SISTER MOON jump across music categories with their evolving art form, an anonymous projection of people’s inner self into music.
Before they even debuted, they caught the attention of music curators and were invited to various major festivals in Japan.
Their debut EP “Some Same Soul” was released on July 29, 2020. Three of the tracks, that benefited from an earlier release, have been selected on several Spotify editorial playlists of various countries.
