With a release date scheduled for February 2011, the essence of Treefight For Sunlight is encapsulated by the ten mini-symphonies that make up their self-titled debut L.P. and aptly demonstrates that Bella Union in 2011 will be as eclectic as ever. The band, who have known each other since childhood, come from Denmark, a regualr breeding ground for interesting music, if bands like Mew, The Raveonettes, Oh No Ono and Treefight’s label mates The Kissaway Trail are anything to go by. Bands that draw from rock and pop’s rich tapestry and weave that into their own unique and challenging DNA. In Treefight For Sunlight’s case it is the legacy of California West Coast pop where there roots are firmly planted, from the genre’s beginnings in the epic harmonies of The Association and The Turtles, and the resulting knock on effect in the seventies with Sparks and in the eighties with the Paisley Underground scene in LA. Fans of The Flaming Lips, MGMT and Panda Bear will surely appreciate Treefight’s multi-dimensional elaborate, enchanting energy and engrossing imagery.
