Биография

Sitting somwhere in the twillight zone between band/solo/music-as-lifestyle endeavour. Led by Peter from Peter Bjorn and John. The debutalbum ”Come fetch my soul” shares melodic wisdom that immediately feels familiar yet is unexplored territory for Morén, who delivers a collection of tunes that instantly feel timeless, ranging from wistful folk and Beatles-esque pop to psychedelic guitar jangle and shimmering balladry. For the album, Morén enlisted fellow indie artists Ron Sexsmith, Jess Williamson, Eric Johnson (Fruit Bats, Bonny Light Horseman), and Kathryn Williams, which resulted in multiple duets throughout the album. The closing track “Wake Up,” written with Williams during a songwriting retreat, features Ren Harvieu. “During that trip, we sang a lot together in different groups,” explains Morén, “and it was that spirituality of singing with other people that I want to bring into this record.” An open-ended name that references both the classic sound of 1950’s Sun Records and the passage of time itself, SunYears has been years in the making with a figurative birth that came during the pandemic. With touring scrapped, Morén rediscovered his love of playing guitar in solitude and the art of collaboration, which he did with a tight-knit group of friends and peers in his hometown of Stockholm. “Those experiences brewed something in me,” he recalls. “Looking at how other people make music, and dipping in and out of other environments, was really inspiring.”
