You
can call them analog or perhaps acoustic. Steven Ferrara, songwriter for Sunshine
just says “we’re kinda old fashioned. As if our canvas was the modern indie-folk
song but the paint we use came from a 1950’s West Village jazz club.”
This Brooklyn
quartet does have some range, going from power pop choruses to avant-garde, experimental bridges. Featuring four part vocals, Sunshine’s
line up consists of Amy Santos on bass, the Reverend Crawford Forbes on piano,
Steven Ferrara on acoustic guitar and Ted Pallas on drums and other percussion.
In
December 2009, Sunshine released a new single entitled Masterpiece of Mud.
This ballad is Sunshine’s third release following two full-length cds:
the self-titled Sunshine (2004), and Equal Halves Coincide (2005).
