Rising producer and pop-violinist Joel Sunny shares the epic Star-Bound Lovers EP. He has created a dedicated, fast-growing fanbase (to the tune of 2M on TikTok alone) and is poised for a breakout year ahead. Star-Bound Lovers might be described as "one big movie cut into three acts." “First Sight” is a delicious waltzing romance that will raise the hair on your arms, full of Tarot-infused imagery: in the accompanying film, Joel appears as two opposing characters, Sun and Moon. It is a love song, as are all his songs in a way - odes to romance and destiny. “Parisian Lovers” continues the story beginning with a turbulent storm of strings: regarding the video, he says, "I wanted a romantic surface with something underneath that isn't quite right: Cinderella meets Eyes Wide Shut!" The arrangement came to him while watching American Horror Story, a particular scene where Lady Gaga, as Countess Elizabeth, dances with a vampire over scenes from their past life. The flavour of his new musical dreamscape is distinctly European, he says - an unconscious hangover, perhaps, from his British childhood. “Last Dance” is the triptych's bittersweet ending, set in a rose garden. The EP will be released on March 7th as a coloured vinyl.
