Why do we like this?

"The Ruby Suns, the band pseudonym of nomadic Californian-New Zealander Ryan McPhun, return after four years with a brilliant and ambitious new record, Sprite Fountain." Having had earlier label ventures with esteemed musical portals Sub Pop Records and Memphis Industries, The Ruby Suns have released 4 previous records: 2006’s The Ruby Suns, 2008’s Sea Lion, 2010’s Fight Softly and 2013’s Christopher.

"Tilt Of His Hat" is a fun track full of tropicana grooves, dreamy vocals and a great twist of chords which lead into the chorus and provide it with an intriguing mystery. McPhun spent most of the time on the album on his own in Norway, with final mixing assistance by visiting friend and The Ruby Suns live band member, Bevan Smith.

Sprite Fountain is out on June 9th via Sellout! Music.
