Sonny and the Sunsets

"Happy Carrot Health Food Store"

BY Alex HudsonPublished Jan 8, 2015

Proving that the life of a touring musician doesn't have to come at the expense of nutrition, Sonny and the Sunsets have shared a new song called "Happy Carrot Health Food Store."

This cut from the band's forthcoming Talent Night at the Ashram is a quirky, jazzy folk-pop curio that sprawls over more than seven minutes. Although the structural shifts and many psychedelic touches are prog-like in their ambitiousness, the rough-around-the-edges cuteness of the arrangement means that the overall impression is humble rather than grand. There's even a spoken word passage featuring a conversation with a dog.

Talent Night at the Ashram will be out on February 17 through Polyvinyl.

02/17 Portland, OR - The Doug Fir Lounge
