Don’t Miss it: Sonny and The Sunsets bring their 50′s swag to The Funhouse
Sonny Smith and his friends (and backing band) The Sunsets are working their way back to Seattle to play The Funhouse on Tuesday, June 28th. Sonny brings his innocent, lovey dovey doo-wop songs from San Francisco on the first leg of their US/CANADA tour with The Sandwitches. Seattle’s Seapony, who Seattle Scenester has seen on several accounts, will be opening for the show.
Sonny and the Sunsets have kept mouths fed for the past couple years. In 2007, The Sunsets, a rotating group of Bay area kids well known in the scene, united with Sonny Smith and created a fuzzy, indie pop with a 50′s grin. The summery bunch unleashed a debut EP, hypnotist, and followed up rather quickly with the flavorful LP, Tomorrow is Alright. The album was well received and while playful, was tight and top notch. Their sophomore LP,Hit After Hit, dropped this year and brings 11 more songs to throw in the mix since they played at Neumos last year with lo-fi, surf rockers Best Coast. Sonny and The Sunsets, simply put, are a blast and are not worth missing.
