Frankie Sunswept & the Sliver Moons
NYC psych rock six piece Frankie Sunswept & The Sliver Moons brings melodic vocal harmonies, playful time signatures, and polyrhythmic percussion to an eclectic blend of garage rock, psych pop, and world music.
Their debut album Nostalgia is inspired by Ethio-jazz, 60s psychedelia, Nigerian desert rock, Krautrock, Bolivian folk music, proto-punk, thrash metal, and prog rock. Both contemplative and celebratory, motorik and melancholy, the album is a time capsule dealing with themes of collective memory, climate change, grief and resilience, mythology, science fiction, loving kindness, and compassion. Each song seamlessly flows into the next, creating an infinite loop that echoes the album’s theme of the circular nature of time.
Formed in 2024, the band consists of Frankie Sunswept, Kimberly Haven, Angela Carlucci, Tom Beuchel, Sam Harmet, and Jordan Auber.
