This young musical maestro goes by the name of Nick Sowersby. Having only just released his debut record, the blissed-out, euphoric dream-pop meets neo-psychedelica Wonderer, Sunbeam Sound Machine has left a late but most definite mark on the year.

We hate to make obvious comparisons, but we’ve not witnessed a talent like this since a young Perth lad by the name of Kevin Parker stormed into the music scene some years ago, and the DIY aesthetic that runs in Parkers veins is ramped in Sowersby too.

Gazing into 2015, we are certain the one-man-musical-machine will be one of the most sought out Aussie artists on the touring circuit.

The sound from the debut release from Melbourne’s Sunbeam Sound Machine, is rich and kaleidoscopic. Big Bubbles of Sound with thudding percussion where the sound falter’s then builds again. Colorful, bleary and distended. But It’s all the product of one man, Nick Sowersby, It’s an enveloping, thrillingly odd sound, Sowersby’s voice drifts along like a candy boat across a chocolate river, but there’s something unsettling lurking beneath the waters. “What should I do with the life I’m living?” are the first words Sowersby sings, and the rest of the release feels like a kind of dreamy, stream-of-consciousness.
