LEISURE – Sunsetter (Solid Red Vinyl)

In a world preoccupied with instant gratification and overnight success, LEISURE is taking the scenic route. The five members – and mates – came together in 2015 on a spontaneous trip up the ragged West Coast of Aotearoa. At that stage, they’d independently spent years churning through the music machine’s tight jaws. Individually, the five are award-winning songwriters, producers and creatives. Together, they resolved to carve out a new musical paradigm: cut the crap, enjoy the ride and above all, keep it LEISURE.

Sunsetter is LEISURE’s third studio album, concluding their 2020/2021 EP series Side A and Side B. As the world has provided its challenges these past years, the group decided to release the record in phases: “we wanted to release a collection of records that really made us ‘feel’ something in these ever-changing modern times."

Sunsetter , the full album fittingly concludes the beginnings of Side A ’s new light. An album centred around home, underpinned as always by their genuine friendship and democratic writing process, it follows the journey of the band's past couple of years – one in which they've started families, become closer friends and refocused on what's important.
