Kiwi psych & surf-rock reggae-heads Sojøurn give us More, their new single out now on Meow. Accompanied by a stunningly shot video that captures their roof-raising live energy, it’s a summer gem that fuses glorious grooves with fantastically psychedelic production elements. The increasingly popular six-piece have been whipping up a storm on tour recently with standout festival appearances at Bay Dreams and Soundsplash, and More represents a giant leap forward as they ramp up towards the release of the forthcoming EP Mystic Ways.

The critically acclaimed east-coast groovers are set to realise their endless potential with the new EP set for release early 2022. Produced by Connor Jaine of Mako Road, it’s a body of work that brilliantly captures their true sound, and showcases the band’s recent journey through change, adversity, loss and positive growth. Drawing on influences including Ocean Alley, Mild Orange and The Black Seeds, Mystic Ways is a celebration of the good times; and a mature acknowledgement of how they got there. It’s the fresh soundtrack for summer, and exactly what we all need right now.

"Roof-raising live favourites…" – Under The Radar

"A fantastic example of the strong reggae/ska vibe that NZ is known for… (Sojøurn) capture the sounds, feeling, and overall vibe of an Aotearoa summer. 5/5" – Jamie Denton, Muzic.net.nz

With youth on their side, Sojøurn have been earmarked by critics and fans as a band on the rise with lofty ambitions. Their joyfully cruisy debut Summer Tape EP (2019) received favourable airplay across their home country, with singles Stand Up, How It Grows and latest Saturday Sipping earning the band a fast-growing fanbase that is absolutely frothing for the next release. Alongside their notable festival appearances, Sojøurn have shared stages with like-minded established artists including Mako Road, Summer Thieves, The Butlers and Sons of Zion.

Hailing from the sun-drenched surf-town of Mangawhai, NZ, Sojøurn are made up of members Isaac Hunter (Lead Vocals / Guitar) James Finlay ( Lead Guitar / BV) Jim Bokma (Drums) Tony Baker (Bass) Jacob O’Brien ( Saxophone / BV) and Elias Giles ( Keys).
