Artist's Biography
Sunshine
Riot are a rock and roll band from Boston, Massachusetts.
Some nice words from the past:
Sunshine Riot also sets themelves apart from the indie pack by hitting the
road as often as possible. Their DIY work ethic extends beyond the studio to
their super-aggressive approach to self-booking these shows, which are up
and down the I-95 corridor on the East Coast, through the Mid-West and down
to the South East. The band often books shows with popular local artists,
and has built their growing fan base throughout the country.
With a sound that has been aptly described as “Johnny Cash meets Kurt
Cobain”, Sunshine Riot’s exciting aesthetic of loud rock and heartfelt
songwriting about finding optimism and digging out of life’s most hellish
circumstances has been lauded everywhere from their home region to just
about every spot on their traveling itinerary. Feedback Fury in Michigan
said, “This band has it all.” The Observer in Nashville called them “one of
the most remarkable live acts Boston has seen in a long, long time.” The
Daily Dose in Providence made reference to their “great, genre-defying
songwriting,” while The Noise from NYC, where Sunshine Riot plays
frequently, sounded a bit envious when it said, “New York should adopt
Sunshine Riot…these guys are about to explode.”
