A snapshot of a period of change, peace and contentment for Sowersby, Possum reflects a refreshed outlook for Sunbeam Sound Machine. Music that leans into the artist continuing to discover more about himself and his place (and ours) in the world, Possum is a striking effort that can offer an avenue for escape, or a moment for the listener to find comfort in.

Possum engages a new phase of creativity: marked by vibrancy and a desire to embrace new attitudes regarding his approach to music.12 tracks of pure confidence and energy channelled through shimmering synths, rich rhythms and guitar work that buoy Sowersby’s captivating vocals beautifully.

Recorded between the Australian bushfire tragedies and the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Sowersby’s songwriting lent itself to exploring themes where optimism and hope were never far from featuring, in amongst ideas of growth and change. Built around a core idea of fear vs love, Possum is Sunbeam Sound Machine’s journey of navigating the beauty and complexities of both.

Though the initial collection of material was written and recorded by Nick Sowersby, he opened himself up to collaboration, working with Melbourne producer John Lee over a number of months for a period of song deconstruction and rebuilding at Phaedra Studios.

Performed by Nick Sowersby, John Lee and Sophie Treloar.

Oh how I long for this album in vinyl format! Such smoothness. Such warmth. Such execution. This music begs to be taken along and woven into memories. Everyone I’ve shared this album with has loved it. The music speaks far and wide. Shouting out to a fellow follower, Brian Lehmann, for his excellent taste in music. If not for him, I likely would have never stumbled upon this absolute gem! Plinchmo Larduktin
