San Cisco Share Sun-Drenched Dance Single “Under The Light”

Australian indie trio San Cisco have shared their captivating new single “Under The Light,” which also includes an accompanying music video.

“Under The Light” is a result of a collaboration with Jay Watson, recognized from bands like GUM, Pond, and Tame Impala. Originally envisioned as a party track akin to Sia’s ‘Chandelier’, the song transformed into a deeper exploration of self-reflection and growth. Vocalist and drummer Scarlett Stevens commented, “We thought about a club where at the end of the night the lights come up and the truth is revealed. It became a metaphor for having a spotlight on us as people, and discovering hard truths about growing up.”

The accompanying music video, directed by Caely Wesson, showcases the ruins of Perth’s once-thriving theme park, Atlantis. Shot amidst the remnants of the park, including the iconic King Neptune statue, Wesson drew inspiration from the mythical world of Atlantis, playing on the song’s themes of reality and illusion.

San Cisco has successfully whetted fans’ appetites, hinting at their fifth studio album, which is a collaboration with producer James Ireland and mixed by Grammy award-winning engineer Neal H. Pogue and Anthony Dolhai. The trio previously announced that they’d wrapped up recording sessions split between LA and Fremantle.

Over a decade in the music industry, San Cisco has cemented themselves as a leading indie-pop band in Australia, boasting millions of streams, critical acclaim, and four studio albums. The anticipation is building for their fifth album set for a 2024 release, following the success of their fourth album, Between You and Me, which reached top three in the ARIA Album Charts.

Never ones to rest, San Cisco has also been lighting up stages with their live performances. This year, they’ve headlined the FIFA Fan Festival in Adelaide and are set to perform at the Singapore Formula 1 Grand Prix in September.
