Third Man Records is delighted to introduce you to the purebred, blue-ribbon chamber-pop wunderkinds known heretofore AND henceforth as Sun Seeker. Native to Nashville and no strangers to musical basements, bars, and busy backyards, Alex Benick, Austin Edwards, Asher Horton and Ben Parks have whipped up one HELL of a debut single and another fresh addition to our catalog and theirs. Produced by the inimitable Buddy Hughen (Tristen) and mastered by Nashville's best set of ears John Baldwin, the single itself stems not only from recent a studio session across town, but is also the culmination of years of practice and pretty much CONTINUOUS performance since maybe... like... their freshman year of high school? Not to be that guy (but damn it to the jaws of hell if it isn’t the truth), these guys are, uh, totally ace. How did we not notice sooner?
We see no better way to exercise our cunning and set our cold, dead hearts aflame than to unleash this single in the first week of the loveliest month of February. February 5th, to be exact. If you trust us (you do, don't you?), go ahead and pre-order "Georgia Dust" b/w "No One Knows" now. If your cold, dead heart isn't so easily won, please won’t you JOIN US for an in-store performance and tour kickoff at Grimey’s New & Preloved Music on February 6th at 5:00PM when we will not only show you the err of your ways, but we will celebrate WITH YOU the release of Sun Seeker's GORGEOUS debut and send them off on their maiden voyage into the wilds of the American southeast (hint hint). The performance is FREE. You hear me? FFFFRRRREEEEEEEEEEE. So hustle your buns, get sorted, and come listen to the expert punch of a polished sound.

I dig it!!! To my Chattanoogans, what the heck is “The Mome?” I want to go to the Chatt show on the 12th, but I dont know where that place is and can’t find anything about it online….
This track has a twist to it and im hoping that they will be headed in the direction of Buffalo Rodeo as time goes on so that they can really whip it around with some fluid motion and rock a little harder live!
What does purebred even mean??? Long line of Nashvillians maybe? One has to ask these questions from time to time just to get at the relevance…
I love it! Sounds like early 70s smoothness!!!
Not bad. Would like to hear an album by them. Way better than the country by numbers Margo Price.
Did anyone guess this on the Monkey Band?
Puts me in the mind of Kelly Stoltz with pedal steel.
Splendiferous
