Few musical artists have the ability to capture today’s zeitgeist the way sunsetto does. While his sound is full-on forward-thinking pop – pulling from an all-over-the-map list of genres such as dance, rap, R&B and modern country – his lyrical themes dip and twist from the joyful to the profound. Previously released single, “PLANS,” laid the foundation of sunsetto’s emotionally-charged next chapter in music, and he’s now following up with “GREEN TXTS.”
“I’m a ’90s baby so we’ve seen the birth of social media, and we are a bridge between the IRL and URL generations,” sunsetto says, noting that the diverse crop of songs on his forthcoming debut album move from being nostalgic to futuristic, moving between a sort of Fleetwood Mac energy to a Post Malone-esque hip hop energy on songs like “GREEN TXTS.”
The nostalgic song was written about losing friends – the feeling you get when you try to reach out to someone after a while and you realize they’ve changed their number and are just not the same person anymore.
