Sunshine Behavior is an Indie/Rock/Alt band from the Twin Cities.
Their Magic Act: It’s not just the prosaic, powerful and poignant lyrics. It’s not just the way the music so exquisitely follows the intent of those lyrics, like two people riding on a tandem bike. It’s not just that these guys each have their own magnetism and individual talent. It’s not just that the tunes are relatable, the music is approachable, that pieces of songs seem to get stuck in your head. It’s more than all of that. It’s some kind of magic.
Peace and Love: It’s as old as the sixties but as fresh as today for this band. Really and truly. From the band mates: “Look, we aren’t into the projection of violence that’s out there with some music. How creative is that? There are so many more descriptive words besides FUCK. We’re all about the positive. Learning from our mistakes. Always moving forward. Even within our lyric structures, we do move through the dark stuff. It’s part of living. We want to do music that will make people stop beating themselves up for 3 to 4 minutes at a time.”
The Band’s Name: After much ado regarding this matter, one night the band was having beers at a local Irish bar and saw these words on a coaster: “May the sunshine warm upon last night’s behavior.” That was it. Done.
The Behavior: There is a groove this band has, a vibe that is very subtle, but after observing them, you see they really do like one another. Watching Jimmy and Justin physically back to back, jamming out on a song, you know there’s a bond there. “Egos kill, that is the X factor in any band. We’re brothers. We all bring a different, but necessary, spice to the pot.”
Think For Yourself: This band encourages listeners to go beyond what the media/record company conglomerates try to force-feed consumers. “Try new things musically. And don’t forget, we’re also a good work out band! We’re very ADD-friendly.”
Direction headed: “Straight to the top.”
Their inspirations: Each other. Music, all kinds. And fans. “You dream of performing songs and then you look down and see that the fans know all the words. Our fans put gas in our tank.”
Says It All: From the band’s song “Today” — “I have the passion like you do, compassion alongside it too. I have the music you feel, it moves me, speaks, makes me real.”
