Remember Jos? Gonz?lez? Yeah, he’s the guy who soundtracked all those coloured balls falling down that hill in that TV commercial. Well, him and his lovely voice are back with his new band Junip. Well. We say ‘new’, they’re actually his old band as they were formed in the late ’90s… but chances are, you haven’t heard of them before.
Junip is Gonz?lez on guitar along with drummer Elias Araya and organ/moog player Tobias Winterkorn. They’ve done a mini tour of the States in June and has been playing the European festival circuit all summer.
Now they’ve got a record out one Mute/City Slang and will be touring North America… and you can have a listen below.
If you visit Junip’s new website, there’s videos and things to look at and listen to… www.junip.net. Better still is that, there, you can download the group’s Rope & Summit EP for free.
That’s nice isn’t it?
If you want to suck it and see, you can stream the new single, “Always,” from the band’s new record, Fields, which is released on September 14, 2010.
