VIDEO OF THE DAY: “VIOLENT SEA” BY SONDRA SUN-ODEON

Brooklyn-based musician and composer Sondra Sun-Odeon seems to float across multiple dimensions in her ethereal debut solo album, Ætherea. Sun-Odeon, who is also part of the psych duo Silver Summit, took a year to record Ætherea, playing all the guitars and piano and getting help from Helena Espvall on cello, Leyna Marika Papach on violin and viola, and Ben McConnell on percussion. Songs such as “Violent Sea,” “Samarkand,” “Golden Bird,” and the otherworldly double-shot finale of “Witches” and “Hair” are filled with a dark mystery that slowly wind through fascinating musical interludes and haunting vocals, while “The Apple” is a mesmerizing nine-plus-minute instrumental that seems to still be going long after it’s over. Sun-Odeon will be celebrating Ætherea with a record release party November 14 in the back room at Public Assembly, playing with a full band, including strings. CC Carana and Bee and Flower are also on the bill.
