Sunfruits are a psychedelic pop band from Melbourne. Founded by Winter McQuin, their members include Evie Vlah, Imogen Cygler, Elena Jones and Gene Argiro. Sunfruits live shows revive the 60s psychedelic sounds and visuals with their very own modern 70s rock spin, blending their own twist of modern psychedelia and harmonious pop. Sunfruits have been making waves around Melbourne and the Australian music scene for the past 3 years with their environmentally conscious and politically aware lyricism, paired with their contemporary psychedelic pop sound. On 2021 release, ‘Certified Remixes’ saw the band collaborate with Traffik Island, Hachiku and Candy on three remixes of previously released tracks ‘Above The Clouds’, ‘Mushroom Kingdom’ and ‘Whatever You Want’. Releasing two 7”s and an EP during their time working with Third Eye Stimuli Records and recently Flightless Records (Distro), these releases all received high praise from Triple J, Clash Magazine, Beat Magazine, Tone Deaf, New Commute and more. Sunfruits have collaborated with brands including Bonsoy on their 2020 release double single ‘Mushroom Kingdom / Bonsoy’ as well as Green Music Australia on their 2020 debut EP ‘Certified Organic’. These releases saw the talented live group appear at festivals including NYE On The Hill, Ok Motels, Euroa Music Festival, Brunswick Music Festival and supporting acts including Mildlife, Nice Biscuit, Gabriella Cohen, Good Morning, Cable Ties, as well as multiple headline tours of the east coast of Australia. Their most recent ‘Made To Love’ sees Sunfruits showcase an exciting new direction and their most definitive work to date. Garnering acclaim from The Guardian, Tone Deaf, Pilerats, New Commute, triple j, PBS, RRR and more, this track sets the tone for what is still to come, we can expect to see the band reach new heights.

Fire, in my throat, Im choking on my breath Tryna find a way out this godforsaken mess Would you search for me, in rubble and in smoke Hope we wake one day and this is all a joke Ohh baby sometimes I think that I think too much Got you in my head honey and your just made to love Just me and you until the last dandelion floats away Till the earth collapses and we all go up in flameNow and then I…

I can see the line between the times we were five Rocket ships and star fuelled dreams I know they weren’t mine If I could be stuck Floating there I’d fly right through the stratosphere But memories they fade and new ones show their spark, if you told me at that age I’d believe it all I’d believe it all, what you said, all along I won’t be the same, it’s a shame, about the not world being okayI…
