The Setting Suns is a collaboration between Sam Fogarino, drummer from Interpol and Adam Franklin, guitarist and singer from Swervedriver and Toshack Highway. The duo met over dinner in NYC last winter, while being introduced by long time, mutual friend Jack Rabid of The Big Takeover.
A post from Sam in the project’s MySpace blog: the setting suns was something i never expected to happen. i’ve been a swervedriver fan from the start, still am. i would have killed just to bang a can for adam franklin. now, he makes sense of my melodies, and turns our ideas into a beautiful din. i feel lucky and alive…. and a bit sick from my own sap.
thanks again. we’ll keep you posted.
