OK, let’s get all the “rising from ashes of The A-sides” and the “flying and taking flight” references out of the way. Sun Airway, the new “bedroom/basement” project turned full band from former A-siders Jon Barthmus and Patrick Marsceill, is already creating quite a buzz with their most excellent upcoming debut Nocturne of Exploded Crystal Chandelier. The album’s official release is tomorrow Oct. 26 on Dead Oceans, and we think this one is going to take Sun Airway to many places (hopefully one of them is Japan). We had a chance to catch up with Barthmus on the phone last week before he headed off for his national tour, which opens tomorrow night in Pittsburgh with Bear in Heaven. Check out where his passion for music came from, what’s behind that interesting album title, and plenty of other things that we were just wondering here!
