Sunbears (Aus)

“They’re like a a mentos mint shoved in a coke bottle, ready to explode in all the right ways!”, David Glover Sydney Blues Society.  

Together, The SunBears create a sonic inferno that ignites stages and leaves audiences exhilarated. Their live performances are a sight to behold, characterised by explosive energy, tight musicianship, and an infectious enthusiasm that sweeps through the crowd, turning each show into an unforgettable experience. The bands sound draws inspiration from a diverse range of musical genres, including blues, rock, pop, funk and soul. It is both unique and accessible, with an unmistakable Australian flair.  Blending a fistful of George Thorogood passion, a crunch of AC/DC rawness and a sprinkling of John Mayer soul, their catchy melodies, driving rhythms, and explosive live performances sate the appetite of young and old alike.  

The band have stormed onto the scene in the past 2 years releasing 5 singles, 2 of which reached #1 on the Australian National AMRAP charts. Their latest single ‘Loaded Gun’ was released on June 23 and has been in Top Ten most dowloaded songs for over three weeks. They have played at some of Australia's most iconic venues and festivals, including the Enmore Theatre supporting Suzi Quattro, Thredbo Blues and Roots Festival, Cronulla Jazz and Blues Festival (to name a few) and multiple venues up and down the country. The band were nominated as semifinalists in the International Songwriter Competition and were also voted by the members of the Sydney Blues Society as favourite blues ‘Emerging Artist 2022’ of the year. And if that’s not enough to get you jiggling with excitement, the band are heading off on a HUGE European tour in September 2023.
