Antenna To The Afterworld

Overview & Specifications

Sonny & The Sunsets are the energetic accompaniment to the dynamic workings of Sonny Smith.  Adopting a range of sounds -- including '50s and '60s pop, old-time country, folk, and much more -- Smith's sardonic, laid-back style is interwoven throughout his compelling songwriting and vocals.

On their new album the murder of a close friend of the band led Sonny Smith to think a lot about death and life after death. "Antenna To The Afterworld" is a strange yet entertaining odyssey into this reflection.

The album is full of wry humour, gritty poetry and a myriad of musical lenses, all fleshed out by drummer Kelly Stoltz's Joy Divison-like beats, Ryan Browne's new-wave basslines and Tahlia Harbour's deadpan vocals.
