Sam Evian is a New York-based musician, songwriter, and in-demand producer known for his work with Big Thief, Blond Redhead, Cass McCombs, Palehound, and more.
Plunge is Sam Evian's 4th studio album, and the debut on his new imprint Flying Cloud Recordings (3.22.24). Joined by his closest friends and collaborators (including Liam Kazar, Sean Mullins, El Kempner of Palehound and Adrianne Lenker of Big Thief), the album was tracked live to tape in the early winter months of 2023 over a 10-day period at his quaint Flying Cloud Recording studio tucked away in the Catskills Mountains. With a wide-open recording approach, the result is Evian’s best album to date: a cathartic rock record that melds power pop, iridescent guitar, raucous psychedelia, and Sam’s now sought-after grooves. The music is both fresh and familiar, sonically inspired by his penchant for early 70s production and creatively propelled by the free-spirited process depicted in the Beatles documentary Get Back, as well as his urge to let go. “No-one knew the songs or what the plan was. We kept it loose and fun. This was the spirit of the sessions. No headphones, no playback, minimal overdubs, or bleed. Fast and loose” Evian remarks.
Previous albums include Premium (2016), You, Forever (2018), and Time to Melt (2021)
