  • Bio

    Acid-laced pop Sunfields are the brain child of Jason Kent. The band features x- members of Kandle, The Dears, Tricky Woo, Soft Canyon... Songs lean hazily on imagery, disarming melodies, moody instrumentation and simple instrumentation. Their debut album, Palace in the Sun, once described as "the most overlooked album of 2010" is still gaining slow but sure attention. Released in 2010 (Field Recordings) , was recorded in the tiny rural village of Pitsford, located some 60 miles north of London, England, and was finished at Mountain City Studios in Montreal. Sunfields are gearing up for their second full blown European tour, late Spring 2013. Here comes the Sun... ____________________________________________ "Sunfields' debut is the one we've been waiting for, with a tight-as-sin unit that finally brings the songwriter's vision to life." "HOUR", Steve Guimond – August 19, 2010 ~ _____________________________________________ "...the quartet has emerged with a lovely record, bearing the classy bombast of chamber rock, the intimacy of singer-songwriter fare, the easybreeziness of vintage pop and the grit of good country". "MONTREAL MIRROR", Lorraine Carpenter, August 19, 2010 ~ _____________________________________________ "Full of stunning imagery, coupled with swirling organs, swooping guitars and harmonising that the Eagles would be proud of, Sunfields' debut album is a piece they can be proud of. "AMERICANA UK", Phil Edwards, September 11, 2010 ~ ______________________________________________ "stirring pinches of Neil Young, Wilco, and CCR aided by rootsy harmonies, bouncy keyboards, and twangy guitar bursts that brings back images of "The Last Waltz" by The Band. Drawing on musical tradition, this is nostalgic rock and roll at it's finest." "LONELY VAGABOND", August 22nd, 2010

    "JACKSON'S LOVE - FOR THE LOVE OF A CHILD" - MY BRAND NEW CD - HAS JUST BEEN RECORDED - WATCH FOR IT SOON @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT MICHAEL MYERS ...

    "I spent eight years trying to reach him and then another seven trying to keep him locked up because I realized that what was living behind that boy's eyes was purely and simply EVIL ...

    You've got to believe me, Officer, he is coming to Haddonfield... Because I know him - I'm his doctor! You must be ready for him... If you don't, it's your funeral!"

    ~ Dr. Sam Loomis from the movie "HALLOWEEN"

    IT'S HALLOWEEN ... I GUESS EVERYONE'S ENTITLED

    TO ONE GOOD SCARE!

    OPTIMISM is the FAITH that leads to ACHIEVEMENT Sunfields!
     

    I AM RECORDING A NEW ALBUM THIS SUMMER - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT OPTIMISM ...

    “One of the things I learned the hard way was

    that it DOESN'T PAY to get DISCOURAGED.

    Keeping busy and making OPTIMISM a way of life

    can RESTORE YOUR FAITH in yourself.”

    IF YOU REALIZED HOW POWERFUL YOUR

    THOUGHTS ARE ~ YOU WOULD NEVER THINK

    ANOTHER NEGATIVE THOUGHT!

          Giving Thanks

    I AM RECORDING A NEW ALBUM THIS SUMMER - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT GRATITUDE ...

    "I would maintain that THANKS are the HIGHEST FORM

    of THOUGHT, and that GRATITUDE is HAPPINESS

    DOUBLED BY WONDER."

    "If a fellow ISN'T THANKFUL for WHAT HE'S GOT,

    he isn't likely to be THANKFUL for what he's

    GOING TO GET."

    ~ Frank Clark

    WE ALL HAVE SO MUCH TO BE THANKFUL FOR!

    I AM RECORDING A NEW ALBUM THIS SUMMER - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE OLYMPIC GAMES ... 

    “Never underestimate the POWER OF DREAMS and the influence of the HUMAN SPIRIT. We are all the same in this notion: The POTENTIAL FOR GREATNESS lives within each of us.”

     ~ Wilma Rudolph - Olympic Champion

    Wilma Rudolph was born prematurely at 4.5 lbs., the 20th of 22 siblings;  Rudolph contracted infantile paralysis (caused by the polio virus) at age 4.  She recovered, but wore a brace on her left leg and foot (which had become twisted as a result) until she was 9.

    Wilma Rudolph was considered the FASTEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD in the 1960s and competed in two Olympic Games, in 1956 and in 1960.

    In the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome Rudolph became the first American woman to win 3 GOLD MEDALS in track and field during a single Olympic Games.

    It's  HOT out there Sunfields!
     

    I AM RECORDING A NEW CD THIS SUMMER - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE SUMMER HEAT ...

    You KNOW its HOT when ~

    >  The birds have to use POTHOLDERS to pull worms out of the ground.

    >  The cows are giving EVAPORATED MILK.

    >  The trees are WHISTLING for the dogs. 

    >  You discover that in July, it takes only 2 fingers to drive your car.

    >  Hot water now comes out of BOTH TAPS.

    >  You realize that ASPHALT has a LIQUID STATE.

    IT WAS SO HOT THE OTHER DAY THAT I TURNED ON

    THE LAWN SPRINKLER AND ALL I GOT WAS STEAM!

    STAY COOL Sunfields!

    It's Time to Give the Man SOME RESPECT Sunfields!
     

    I AM RECORDING A NEW CD THIS SUMMER - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT RODNEY DANGERFIELD ...

    "I get no respect. The way my luck is running, if I was a politician I would be honest."

    "I have good looking kids. Thank goodness my wife cheats on me."

    "I looked up my family tree and found out I was the sap."

    "I told my wife the truth. I told her I was seeing a psychiatrist. Then she told me the truth: that she was seeing a psychiatrist, two plumbers, and a bartender."

    "My wife wants sex in the back of the car and she wants me to drive."

    "What a kid I got, I told him about the birds and the bees and he told me about the butcher and my wife."

    "This morning when I put on my underwear I could hear the fruit-of-the-loom guys laughing at me."

    ~ Rodney Dangerfield

    A DAY WITHOUT LAUGHTER IS A DAY WASTED!

    Sunfields ~ Make It a GREAT DAY my friend!
     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE SPIRIT OF LOVE  ...

    "You will find as you look back upon your LIFE

    that the MOMENTS when you have REALLY LIVED

    are the MOMENTS when you have DONE THINGS

    in the SPIRIT OF LOVE."

    ~ Henry Drummond

    THERE ARE FOUR QUESTIONS OF VALUE IN LIFE.

    WHAT IS SACRED?  OF WHAT IS THE SPIRIT MADE?

    WHAT IS WORTH LIVING FOR, AND WHAT IS WORTH

    DYING FOR?  THE ANSWER TO EACH IS THE SAME.

    ONLY LOVE.

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,
