Echo Thrills wraps us in warmth with “Sunshine”

As temperatures rise, flowers bloom, and birds begin to sing, certain soundscapes just seem made to complement the vibe. Echo Thrills’ “Sunshine” is one such song.

As if beaming you to a different world, the song begins with a cacophony of undulating laser beams that suddenly break into a lo-fi synth melody over relaxed percussion.

“I know I'll find my way back / To the sunshine,” Echo Thrills sings as the track transitions into the chorus, which adds a groovy guitar melody to the mix to tie the psychedelic indie feel together.

“Be calm / The rain’s just falling down / A storm / That’s slowly passing by / Even though it's hard / I know I’ll find the way back,” Echo Thrills sings, weaving an understated metaphor for healing and self-love.

Whether you’re sitting in a park, on a walk, or driving with your windows down, “Sunshine” evokes a certain serenity and ease that is precisely the sonic accompaniment we needed for the warmer months to come.
