What started as an homage to British trip hop has evolved into an eclectic mix of blues, jazz, electronica and alternative music. Sunset Room takes an deep appreciation of diverse classic artists such as Pink Floyd, Janis Joplin and Howlin Wolf, and combines it with the sensibility of modern influences such as PJ Harvey, Radiohead and Basement Jaxx. The band teasingly plays against a backdrop of electronic loops, samples and soundscapes, blurring the lines completely to captures its audience at every turn. It is a well-choreographed sideshow where slide guitars co-exist with laptop computers, vocal melodies drift into jazz scats, and upright bass lines morph into synth grooves. The band is working on the follow-up album to their critically-acclaimed debut, Almost an Angel.
OK, so I heard a rumor that you wonder fab mad geniuses are not playing any shows until you are done with all your new material. HOGWASH! I'm sure your new material is gonna be out of this world, 4th dimension awesome, but I like your old stuff already! PLEASE book a gig in the interim. Pretty please. Much love.
OK, I know you guys are intensely and blessed-be busy with all sorts of cool life stuff, but my goodness, I'm having withdrawls. Pleeeaaaaase set up a gig soon. Much love! May you and yours be well.
How are you? I downloaded a Massive Attack song ("Teardrop") recently and thought of Sunset Room and wondered how you have been since the little one was born! Are you ready to play shows again soon? I have been busy at work chasing Paris Hilton... seriously! (Check out the photo on my My Space page.) Hope to hear from you and see you in the near future!
I loved your guys song I just had to add it to my profile. Waste of make-up is great so do u guys have any more new tunes yet. And when is the next time that you guys are going to play. Well keep up the good work peace out.
Almost An Angel has remained in my top album rotation for the last few years now--I still push it on everyone who rides in the car with me.
I'm really glad I got to see you live; some bands are great studio bands, and other bands are great live bands and somehow you are magically both.
I can't wait to hear your new stuff, and hope you can make it up to the Seattle area when you're finished recording! Let me know if there's anything I can do to help get you up here. :)
HEY!! I don't have any comments on your page. Oh...wait...here's one! By the way, LOVE the makeup song...that's a new one to me. It's going on my page now. :-)
