New York, NY – June 28, 2024 – Indie-pop duo, slenderbodies, released their latest single, “sunny eyes,” a captivating exploration of nostalgia and the complexities of growing up. This track is a poignant preview of their upcoming fourth album, the sugar machine, set to drop on September 6. The new song invites fans to explore their signature airy and whimsical sonic universe.

The sun is a constant theme throughout the sugar machine. “sunny eyes” refers to a bright-eyed child who allows themselves to feel and react in the deepest of extremes. It’s a song that laments the journey into adulthood and expresses guilt about apathy as a coping mechanism for losing one’s innocence. This introspective track explores the emotional spectrum of growing up, from the joy of discovery to the sorrow of lost innocence.

slenderbodies, comprised of Max Vehuni and Benji Cormack, have spent the past two years diving deep into the wistfulness of lost youth and the fleeting moments we chase in pursuit of innocent euphoria. With “sunny eyes,” they invite listeners to immerse themselves in an energetic and euphoric new sound that continues the breezy, silky grooves of their original catalog.

“sunny eyes” follows lead single “youth” and both serve as a precursor to the sugar machine, an album that embodies the melancholic journey of growing older. slenderbodies describe it as a celebration and pursuit of child-like wonder, ignorance, and innocence, juxtaposed with the grief that accompanies chasing innocent bliss. the sugar machine becomes a metaphor for the various ways people seek to access their younger, carefree selves—whether through creation or shedding inhibitions.

In discussing the album, slenderbodies explain, “Through the sugar machine, we attempt to access the awe of discovery that we can never quite hold onto, a perspective that is temporally limited, yet a curiosity we perpetually yearn for.”

“sunny eyes” is now available on all major streaming platforms, offering a taste of what’s to come from slenderbodies’ highly anticipated album release later this year. The duo recently announced their 17-city tour across North America, with Tim Atlas as support. The trek will kick off on September 27 in Seattle before wrapping in Northern California on October 30.
