Geelong-based artist Laguna, the project of James Guida, presents his new song "Sweetlips," a vibrant and dreamy track filled with warmth and a touch of memories. Released under his label, Mountain Girl Records, "Sweetlips" invites listeners into Guida's unique world, marked by a personal and DIY approach.
"Sweetlips" evokes memories of the past while still feeling fresh and engaging. The guitars create a wavy sound, reminiscent of hot pavement, and James' soft vocals linger just out of reach, adding to the song's touching beauty. Laguna has always had a strong sense of purpose in his music, and this song seamlessly blends openness with a sense of grace, exploring themes of connection even in the most difficult times. "Sweetlips" isn't just another song to add to your playlist, it's part of something bigger. Mountain Girl Records, founded by Guida in 2024, serves as a reminder of the power of indie music when approached with care and creativity. Through hand-crafted cassettes, zines, stickers, and other personal touches, he creates a space where fans can engage with his music on a deeper level, collecting it, living with it, and growing alongside it.
With "Sweetlips," Laguna continues to embrace this spirit. This is music for those feeling a bit lost, offering a gentle and dreamy sound for romantics who see the world in a different light. Think of it as a creative expression filled with rebellion, wrapped up in a simple, heartfelt package.
