BANDINFO

Sungrazer is a heavy rock three piece formed in the beginning of 2009. Their music ranges from psychedelic jams to stoner rock. Dutch music medium VPRO 3VOOR12 wrote: "After a mad and sometimes reckless journey through swamp and desert, the members of Sungrazer seem to have reached their final destination. Return to the stoner roots, so with a twist of Kyuss! Calm, rising and dragging riffs, sometimes with a psychedelic edge, alternate heavy droning choruses."

“Sungrazer masters the art of creating (subcutaneous) tension, in which atmospheric passages and guitar drones join hand in hand with furious sound hurricanes." (VPRO 3VOOR12)

"Heavy distorted grinding bassgrooves dominate, but catchy hooks are not absent." (Dagblad De Limburger)

"Sungrazer sounds adventurous and doesn’t bow for laws of commerce. A hypnotizing powertrip!” (VPRO 3VOOR12)

In May-July and September 2009 the band was involved in an international theatre production where they wrote music for a theater play called Wunschkamer. They played in theaters together with the actors of Theatergroep Het Vervolg from Maastricht and Theater K from Aachen. There they met Conny Schneider; she accompanies the band on saxophone occasionally.

In february 2010 they won the Nu of Nooit contest which means that they played at the Pinkpop festival 28th of May! And Sungrazer signed a record deal with Elektrohasch in May 2010. Their psychedelic stonergrooves will be pressed on a special vinyl edition and on CD by Elektrohasch Records!
