The brainchild of vocalist-songwriter Carmody and guitarist-producer Tal Janes, Oh My Sun are a London-based duo centred around a return to analogue life and organic songwriting. Harkening back to the golden era of 70s songwriting with a contemporary twist, the pair coined the term ‘nostalgic absurdism’ to describe their sound, exploring the contrast between longing for a simpler, nature-connected life and the surreal reality of modern city living. The duo are excited to announce their debut album Apocalypse Baby with the release of their second single ‘All I Can Do’ via Bridge The Gap.

‘All I Can Do’ follows the success of the band’s debut single ‘5 Pieces’. The track is a nostalgic reflection on the memories we collect, and the people who were once a part of them, but may have passed away, or passed out of our lives. There’s a deep sense of longing and innocence and a real Fleetwood Mac feel here, playing into the theme of nostalgia with 70s-inspired vocal harmonies, bluesy guitar patterns and a huge singalong chorus. The duo share:

“There’s an innocence to the song, where we begin as children riding in the car, wide eyed and ready for a day that feels like it will never end. It talks about nostalgically dreaming back times you had with someone with a bigger than life personality, the places you went together and how they made you feel anything was possible – but, they’re no longer here. This type of story and feeling was present for both of us when writing, and the chorus is about the way we carry these people with us and hold on to the parts of them which then become a part of us.”
