about

"Morning" is the first musical release of The Sun Kite, released July 7th, 2013.

"Morning" is the first conceptual release of a planned total of THREE, "Morning" being thematically centered around the morning! There are both abstract and concrete elements represented within, including such elements as: light, fog, the concept of beginnings, the sun, awakenings, creation, early morning air, and birdsong. Each song on the EP does its best to meticulously stick to this theme, both lyrically as well as musically.

Each and every instrument played on this EP was specially chosen and crafted to reflect either a slow but steady build of energy (such as the piano on "The Bluebird Mend", or the guitars on "Braving the Wind"), or a constant pulse of mellow noise (the doubled banjo on "Lantern", or the bass and ukuleles on "Ember Bed").

These steady rhythmic builds of energy and constant rhythmic pulses of mellow noise are written and played so as to mesh into a unified, peaceful, and yet steadily-increasing feeling of energy and musical life, which is what I believe all mornings should sound like!

The order of the songs on the EP is also a purposefully thematic decision, intentionally ordered so that listening through from beginning to end will result in an experience of a steady growth of volume, beginning with the slow build of "Lantern", and finally ending with the energetic speed and punch of "Braving the Wind".

"Morning" has been an absolute BLAST to write, create, and produce, and I am so intensely excited to be able to share it with you all!! Please, enjoy!

This is a self-created EP, and as such, all music writing, playing, recording and producing was done by Michael Frommack.

Thanks to Nathan Bittner for creative inspiration, providing a sounding board for me to bounce ideas off of, and for continually providing helpful kicks in the butt when I needed them!

Playing with fellow musicians at local venues, Michael began to develop a musical style all his own.
