...the Sun Electric induce the warmth of the sun, in their hazy and we gotta say - utterly classic - debut EP. The Sun Electric Band know their Crazy Horse-like anthems and keep their stuff just on the right side of lo-fi and make it interesting. ‘Their sounds come off like a laconic and harmonic end credits song to some surfer movie set in Leicester. Love it.

Forget about the weather and let The Sun Electric Band be your sunshine with their beautifully crafted harmonies, jangling guitars and simple rhythms. Reminiscent in places of Liverpool’s own Fab Four with hints of the Beach Boys thrown in for good measures, In The Clouds is a perfect slice of sunshine indie pop.

...a band over-flowing with classic pop eloquence...while new Manc bands are seemingly falling over themselves to re-invent the wheel and overwhelm us with otherworldly soundscapes, The Sun Electric Band’s genius is very much of this world.

It's wistful yet celebrates melancholy rather than wallowing in it.

Their influences include Neil Young and Crazy Horse, American power pop band Shoes and The Replacements...Their narrative of small town life and random train journeys gives their drowsy West Coast-inclined country-pop a North West slant. Elements of The Lemonheads, Husker Du and Deerhunter are evident here too.

Every time I listen to the vocals of “In The Clouds” I cannot stop thinking of The Band. It's a real gem.
