Suncrown.

It’s a rainy Brooklyn evening. Follow the bellowing subway steam down a dark alley, past the dumpster, makeshift cardboard home, and other New York oddities. Second door on the left, the rusted steel one. Inside there’s a sonic revolution happening. Rewind.

Raised by a scientist father and mathematician mother, bubbling beakers and infinite numbers were second nature to prodigy Goldmund. A few too many calculated miscalculations, Goldmund found far more comfort in a guitar and The White Album. "I was bred to be a scientist. And I still like science. But music is, to me, a more direct, a more naked language. Simply put, music turns me on a lot more."

Exploring the progressive rock of Pink Floyd and King Crimson, Goldmund became a prolific songwriter by the young age of sixteen with an ear for harmony and orchestration. A potential young Phil Spector if you will, save the insanity. He went on to study classical composition and vocal performance in college.

Not too far across the river, a wiry street kid named Mike banged away on a drum set to keep himself out of trouble. Crossing wires with Goldmund in various high school rock bands, Jimmy mistakenly marched himself straight into the U.S. reserves as a percussionist for the army band. AWOL? Yes. Jimmy moved to the city, reunited with Goldmund, and formed a rock band.

A former schoolmate of Goldmund and Jimmy, bass player and university dropout Aaron found the two through a New York classified ad. Not too interesting, but the final destination was. With a common penchant for intricate soundscaping and emotive lyrics, the three holed themselves up in a Brooklyn rehearsal space where they painted a musical back drop of massive proportion, exploding hues, and tales to make a listener question just about everything and everyone. Calling themselves "Mae," the three recorded their debut.

Receiving critical acclaim, the band embarked on a national tour. When they returned to New York, the three moved into a house outside the city to focus on writing and recording. They injected some new blood by pulling NY session guitarist Jordan into the band. It was also time for a new direction; one with a more emotive message, one which would take the band and the listener on a journey, recalling the rock and psychedelia of the British invasion. Mae changed their name to Suncrown and began sessions for the next album.

Jetting off to Goldmund’s native Serbia to record their follow up, Suncrown enlisted top European session players, charted multi-instrumental arrangements, and wrapped up the session with 6 gems, naming it "New Love." A select number of European shows followed and Suncrown returned home where they are currently rehearsing for a US tour.

"New Love" American release date slated for December 2004.
