Sunset Sons: Pop Or Rock?
It doesn't matter, as long as our Brand New For 2015 make amezzin' tunes right?
Unfamiliar with Brand New For 2015 nominees Sunset Sons' music? A band who began life as a cover band and started dropping original material into their sets to gauge reactions, we got the guys to tell you themselves how they view their sound...
"We write pop songs but play them in quite a heavy manor," Rob said. "We don't really come across as a pop band but really that's kind of what we're doing. We've been playing really cool pop covers in the covers band so that's how we write and it's pretty rocking as well."
You lose
It's only for us two
I win
You lose
I remember days when we were all alone
If you would ever leave me I would call your phone
We would talk for days and never leave my home
I think about it
Always find a reason to be strung apart
Always wondered if and when you'd break my heart
You would try and argue with me from the start
I can live without it
Come on and baby take my hand now
Remember what we used to say now
It's where it all began, it's where we always hide it
I get tired of being disregarded
You wonder why you're brokenhearted
We've been here times before, we've been here since we started
Yeah
I win
You lose
It's only for us two
I win
You lose
Find it hard to leave things just the way they are
Having fun with you wasn't so bizarre
But we can never be more than an open scar
I'll think about it
Never took the time to ever wonder why
Could have been the call that we'd be laughin', cryin'
But we will never learn because we both denied
I can live without it
Come on and baby take my hand now
Remember what we used to say now
It's where it all began, it's where we always hide it
I get tired of being disregarded
You wonder why you're brokenhearted
We've been here times before, we've been here since we started
Yeah
I win
You lose
It's only for us two

"There's not much of a story," behind their name, Jed revealed. "The truth is we had two bands, our cover band which is what we were doing so we could eat (!) and then we had the real band if you want which is where we're trying to be creative and I just thought we should have a name that made us sound like a gang.
"So I had Sunset and lots of other words and we thought Sunset Sons just sounded cool and what we're about."
Rob added: "We didn't want to dwell on it too much, we thought we'll make what we make of the name and just get one that makes sense and stick with it and carry on."
"You never wanna over think something like that…even though we did a little bit!" Rory quipped.
Rob: "It was a stressful week that."
We bet!
