Cedarsmoke Spins a Psychedelic Single in 'Kicking Drugs'

As they venture out into a new era, Cedarsmoke extends an invitation to come along on Friday, May 9, through their latest single ‘Kicking Drugs’, a psychedelic indie-rock exploration of their new dawn.

S dlhoročnými skúsenosťami od ich prvého vydania v roku 2016 si Cedarsmoke získal pozornosť od indie scény Meanjin/Brisbane, rozhlasových staníc so svojimi stovkami predstavení a ikonických hudobných platforiem, ako sú Triple J, Triple J Unearthed, Double J, MTV, Pilerats, The Music, AU Review, AAA Backstage, Hysteria Mag, Scenestr a ďalšie.

Their constant evolution, diverse style, and emphasis on storytelling evoke vivid childhood memories, teenage antics, and precious nights out, and this nostalgia will blend together with the rush of something new as they prepare to usher out their third full-length album.

‘Kicking Drugs’ is a genre-fluid fusion: alt rock, pop-electronica, avant-garde psychedelic sounds and the nostalgic charm of folk blend together into something experimental but classic. With cheerful drum loops, acoustic guitars, blown-out synths and whirling keys, this sobering track feels like fresh start after kicking an old habit.

Nostalgia a nádej pre budúcnosť piesne sa prenáša na texty, všetko o tom, ako sa zbaviť životných závesov s dobrými časmi s priateľmi a zdieľať tieto nové skúsenosti spoločne.Neobmedzený, slnečný duch kapely nadobúda novú dynamiku, keď frontman Jon Cloumassis, Tamala Wright (búrky / hlasy) a Matt Cloumassis (vedúca gitara) preskúmajú a experimentujú spoločne, otvárajúc portály do nových svetov zvukových prostredí.

Cedarsmoke has always been Jon Cloumassis’s project in any form it takes, and this new era of group-focused music ushers in with it a new era of musical opportunity. Both psychedelic and psychological, ‘Kicking Drugs’ embodies this new era. Cedarsmoke says,

“Influenced by Jungian Colour Psychology, Kicking Drugs is orange – the colour symbolising vitality, stepping out of your comfort zone and embracing new experiences.”

‘Kicking Drugs’ is a sidestep for Cedarsmoke, a new avenue opening up for unconventional sounds and new dynamics, and they’re excited to share it with the world on Friday, May 9.
