Gloomy June is a San Francisco band that combines upbeat melodies with emotionally charged lyrics, reflecting the struggles of lead singer Alexi Belchere after the loss of his sister. Their debut album features the single "Picking Scabs," accompanied by a video showcasing a queer family meal and iconic local landmarks. Belchere expresses the band's mission to create danceable yet bittersweet music, likening their style to a foggy California summer. Formed during the pandemic, the group brings together members from diverse backgrounds, united in their quest for authenticity within the music scene.
We write emotional and bittersweet songs that are really fun to dance to; like the idea of a California summer curtained in fog, our songs often subvert the expectation of a fun pop song.
There's a feeling of freedom you get being your whole queer self while screaming along to Dashboard Confessional.
Before i knew i was the same age as you/Guess i′m living for both of us now.
If that notion lands, consider this band your parade marshals.
