“A Golden Glow of Sound — Craig Small’s Sunkiss Shines Bright”

Craig Small’s debut single “Sunkiss” radiates the energy of a musician who has finally found his own frequency. Emerging from the misty hills of Katoomba, Australia, Small delivers a track that’s as textured as it is tender, a fusion of grit and warmth that glows with the confidence of a long-awaited arrival.

Right from the start, Sunkiss grabs you with its distorted bassline, a nod to the Red Hot Chili Peppers, before trippy guitar tones ripple through like heatwaves. The soundscape feels alive, pulsing with the raw spirit of DIY craftsmanship. You can sense the meticulous two-week recording process, every note sculpted in his home studio until it clicked into place. The influence of Faith No More’s Evidence lingers in the verses, but Craig’s touch makes it distinctly his own, more intimate, more grounded.

Thematically, Sunkiss explores the rush of infatuation, that heady blur between love and obsession. But what makes the song truly special is how it feels: sunlit, dizzy, and a little dangerous. It’s not just about a muse; it’s about the thrill of chasing perfection, both in love and in art.

For a debut, Sunkiss is remarkably self-assured. It’s the sound of an artist stepping into his identity, fearless, inspired, and absolutely glowing. Craig Small doesn’t just chase the sun here, he catches it.
