Following the success of their third studio album The Watermelon Sessions (released 2023), Wide-Eyed Lounge Cats return to the studio where it all began to record a live performance of their original song “Gunnhildr”. The studio, known as the Watermelon Room (based out of Baltimore, MD), became a critical element in the band’s evolution into jazz fusion, allowing them the space and presence to explore, test, and ultimately discover themselves through a shared musicianship. The album and its tracks pay homage to that journey as live performers and studio musicians. The featured song demonstrates the band’s unique ability at bending genres into a powerful array of sounds, and the composition draws inspiration from old Norse folklore and mythology. The video was recorded by Marshall Veth and the audio mixed by Garrett Long, their original engineer (and founder) of the Watermelon Room.
