The band said, "We've had our sights set on covering a Neighbourhood song for quite some time. Stylistically, our singer (Josh Doty) and their singer (Jesse Rutherford) have a lot similarities in tone - both coming from R&B influences. Our approach to "#icanteven" was all about stripping the song down to its essentials. We opted for a more "singer/songwriter" approach with minimal production and a major emphasis on the vocal hooks. We would love the opportunity to open for The Neighbourhood on tour at some point in the future."Influenced by alternative rock, pop, and R&B, Cemetery Sun began when Northern California natives Josh Doty (singer), Austen Butler (drummer), Elliot Polokoff (guitarist/producer) and Jesse Mancillas (lead guitarist) met in the studio.
"The vibe was there. From the first playback, to the final mix, we knew we had crafted something truly memorable," Elliot said. "The rest of it followed suit. We grew at a rate none of us could have ever imagined."
The band focuses on the idea of overcoming life's self-imposed obstacles, learning to love what surrounds them, and ultimately discovering who they are and how to pave the way for others.
It is a sound that seeks clarity.
