Saltwater Sun – Blood

Five childhood friends, Saltwater Sun formed in Reading (UK) a few years ago. They combine sun-drenched pop, garage rock and elements of shoegaze and indie in their band’s sound.

Last week, Jennifer Stearnes, Dan Kingham, Joel Neale, Rob Carter and Benny Chandler released their new EP The Great Deceiver. Blood is the first single off it. A positive and uplifting tune by the sound of its wonderful guitar chords, but at the same time it’s a very personal song about family and the legacy we leave behind. It deals with love, death, grief and all the things in between. Lead singer Jennifer Stearnes wrote the song with her father in mind, who passed away ten years ago this year. However, despite the apparent sadness, Blood is ultimately an indie-pop anthem for hope and all the beautiful things that life has to offer.
