New Zealand's Late June, the musical project of Sonny Bevin, has just dropped his highly anticipated album, 'Mending'. This nine-track release follows a string of singles throughout 2024 and a captivating performance at Auckland's Mystery Festival.
'Mending' is a journey through Bevin's personal growth, reflecting on healing and finding joy in the everyday. The album beautifully blends deep house influences with his signature chilled electronic sound, a style he's been cultivating for almost a decade. Fans will recognise previously released tracks like 'Fragments', 'Focus', 'Nothing Ever Really Changes', 'Take Me Out', and 'Never Saw It Coming', alongside fresh material that adds new depth and dimension to Late June's sound.
Speaking about the album's core theme, Late June shares, “'Mending' is about healing through nature, therapy, travelling & friendship. Finding the small things in life and making art out of every little memory.”
This introspective approach to music has garnered Late June a loyal following over the years. With three albums, several EPs, and a wealth of singles under his belt, Bevin has consistently delivered quality electronic music that resonates with listeners. His music has found a home on major streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, Soundcloud, and Pandora, and earned airplay on influential radio stations such as George FM (NZ), triple J (AUS), KNHC 89.5 (USA), and SiriusXM Chill (USA).
A skilled DJ, Late June has graced the stage at renowned festivals like Our:House Festival (2023) and Mystery Festival (2024), sharing the lineup with artists like MEDUZA, Kah-Lo, Nicole Millar, Friction, and Vibe Chemistry. He has also supported acts such as BAYNK, Nosaj Thing, and Edapollo, further solidifying his presence in the electronic music scene. His creative talents even caught the eye of Converse, leading to a workshop with Tyler The Creator in Sydney as part of their All Star campaign.
With 'Mending', Late June invites listeners to join him on a sonic exploration of healing and self-discovery, solidifying his place as a leading force in the world of emotive electronic music.
