Mount Jacinto is the creative vision of Costa Rican artist Sonya Carmona, formerly a member of Colornoise and Las Robertas. Inspired by the majestic Mount San Jacinto in Palm Springs and the expansive landscapes of Northern California, Sonya sought to embody a sense of freedom and openness in her new musical project. The band lineup includes Gini Jungi of Annie Taylor on guitar, drummer Adrian Oesch, and a touch of Latin American flair with Peruvian Joel Morales on bass and Mexican Yan-Cey on synthesizer. In their music, chamber music elements intertwine with gentle bass lines reminiscent of Air's Moon Safari and melodic compositions rooted in raw alternative rock. Their debut EP, Outward Signs, released in March 2023, explores modern pop-rock psychedelia with a groovy touch of twang. The album was recorded with JooJoo Ashworth from Froth and mixed by Alex Newport (Bloc Party etc.). The title track, "Silver Lining," is a standout on the album, showcasing the evolution of Mount Jacinto's sound over recent years. The debut album Silver Lining is more than a collection of songs -- it's a deeply personal journey through love, loss, and self-discovery. Created during a period of transformation in Sonya Carmona's life, it captures raw emotions and the resilience required to find one's true self. Tracks like "Forest" delve into the path to self-acceptance and the importance of confronting inner struggles, while "The Reason" explores the inner dialogues people have during pivotal moments. The album blends heartfelt, intimate lyrics with lush, soulful soundscapes. Musically, Silver Lining combines classic '60s and '70s influences with a modern indie vibe. It reflects the profound changes Carmona has experienced, offering listeners a moving musical journey.
