Solar Sleeper

Solar Sleeper is the immersive musical project of San Diego-based multi-instrumentalist David McLaughlin. Blending ambient soundscapes with cinematic melodies, Solar Sleeper crafts emotive pieces that sit at the intersection of memory, nature, and introspection. The latest release, Exhalation, is a meditative journey through the arc of a lifetime; an exploration of life, death, transformation, and release. Using warm textures, gentle rhythms, and rich melodic motifs, Exhalation invites the listener into stillness and reflection. Patient and immersive, the album rewards close listening with intricate details that slowly reveal themselves; like light filtering through leaves. It's music meant to be felt as much as heard.
