Sorry, hate to be one of those bloggers who wont stop going on and on about the bands that will be playing at SXSW this year. I have historically ignored other blogs for the entire month of March, due to my sorrow over not going to SXSW in years past but not this year, hope you dont mind too much. In fact, I’ll let you peek behind the curtain a bit; it’s kind of nice to blog about some bands that I just simply like, versus trying to keep up with new releases and items that have some sort of time-sensitive issues to handle. Thanks for indulging me.
San Francisco’s Sonny & The Sunsets (Myspace / Official) will be playing all kinds of showcases and parties when they trek down to Austin. This track from Sonny Smith’s catalog (below) can be heard on a new compilation, In A Cloud SF, from Secret Seven, even though he does have 4 or 5 albums out (some are out of print at this time). This track has a distinctive Cali-retro vibe that would be suited for any surf-intensive Beach party.
LISTEN: Sonny & The Sunsets – “Heart of Sadness”
