The Sunshine Brothers make you feel supremely good and every show feels like a celebration even though you and the band don’t know what for.
Sunshine Brothers are a dub/reggae band like no other – it’s the unique, irreverent and honest delivery of original recipe reggae music by these deeply experienced (and some say larger framed chaps) that guarantees fire on the dance floor, smiles on faces and feelings of general glee every time they take to the stage.
The newly released Red Alert is the third album by the Sunshine Brothers. It follows on from the fresh and fantastic Rebel Yellow debut recorded in 2005 on the beach in Fremantle and the deeper and darker Greenpoint album recorded in 2008 at Daptone Studios in Brooklyn, New York.
Red Alert is a bright and bold selection of juicy, addictive and uplifting reggae inspired gems recorded in the mountains of Madrid, Spain at Maliciosa Studios. It is one of those records that makes the listener want to leave the shallows of fashion, technology and digital media buzz and dive deep into an album the means something and is built to last.
The Sunshine Brothers free thinking approach to music and finely tuned cringe-o-meter has helped them forge an appealing path between fashion and tradition that results in fresh, addictive, honest-to-goodness reggae/dub/ska inspired tracks free from electronics and the genre’s well worn clichés.
Just like freshly fried haloumi cheese can break a diet or a cheeky ex can somehow get you back in the sack, the Brothers irresistible warmth and charm can even seduce the most reggae resistant music lover into a good time.
Think not what you can do for the Sunshine Brothers – but what the Sunshine Brothers can do for you.
