So Sure (A Fragile Tomorrow) To Release Debut EP for MPress Records

I am happy to share So Sure’s debut digital EP on MPress Records, Caffeine Drip, set for a July 10th release. Featuring Sean and Brendan Kelly from A Fragile Tomorrow, and drummer Kyle Polk (The Explorers Club), So Sure has committed to donating 100% of the proceeds from the EP to the ACLU to aid in their advocacy efforts to demand an end to racial injustice and police brutality. I am hoping you will consider a record review or an interview. So Sure’s new Video, “Paper Thin Skinned”, is available as an asset to support Caffeine Drip.

Caffeine Drip is the first offering from So Sure, which was officially formed during the Covid-19 pandemic. The EP features songs that are all-too-timely and reflect the international frustration and anxiety due to the virus and recent protests sparked by the tragedy in Minneapolis. Initially, the group’s bond was their common love of bands such as My Bloody Valentine, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Slowdive, and the Cocteau Twins. And a front-to-back live performance together of My Bloody Valentine’s seminal Loveless album sealed the deal.

Sean states “It was personally great to explore this (style of) music that I’ve loved for so long. In the end, we had five songs that I think felt great to everyone. We started talking with Kyle about this idea we had of starting a shoegaze band, and he was into it. The exciting thing about So Sure is that there seems to be so much more to explore with this band”. With Sean (vocals, guitars, bass, synth, mellotron), Brendon (guitars, bass, synth, programming), and Kyle (drums, percussion, pads), this seasoned group of musicians have created a brilliant EP, who you can see in concert the near future as they plan to tour as soon as allowed.

Please see So Sure’s EPK for more information, and let me know if you would like a high res photo or additional materials. I hope to hear from you soon!
