Advance Base and Sun June Collaborate on "Christmas Is Over"

Advance Base Sun June and want to let you know, have colaborated on new track “Christmas Is Over.” Advance Base will be hitting the road fora run of dates, behind their new LP Horrible Occurrences, starting January 14th in Memphis, TN.

Advance Base – Horrible OccurrencesSun June on: “”Christmas Is Over” is about those brief, difficult, and sometimes glorious encounters you have when you come back home for the holidays. We love to regress. We love to bum cigs from old flames. We love to be totally depleted by family drama! Working on this song was a dream—we sent the demo to Owen, the greatest Christmas songwriter. He brought the song into his Advance Base world and gave it a new life. Christmas is OVER.”

Advance Base’s Owen Ashworth added: “I’ve been a fan of Sun June ever since we shared a bill in Austin, TX back in 2016. It was a joy to take one of their beautiful songs apart and try to reimagine it. Their original demo for ‘Christmas Is Over’ was just a guitar and a vocal. I kept Laura’s vocal track and built a whole new synth and drum machine arrangement around it, adding my own backing vocals. Bennett Littlejohn mixed and mastered the song and Aaron Sewards made the cover art, closing the circle on a dream project.”

Early this month Advance Base released his new album, Horrible Occurrences. Sun June released their latest album, Bad Dream Jaguar, in 2023 and spent this year on the road. At the tail end of 2024 they treated listeners to a Porches remix of “Easy Violence,” the demo of “16 Riders,” and new single, “41 Dollars.”
