Sunflower Bean

SUNFLOWER BEAM IN CONCERT:In early 2016 Rolling Stone called Sunflower Bean "NYC's Coolest Young Band", and it's hard to disagree as they plow through their classic rock-inspired tunes in concert. The trio throws together the best of garage, psych, and alt rock and makes it all their own with ambitious song structures and a modern lyrical sensibility about coming of age in the digital era. Their sound is fresh but their live shows are a throwback to the showmanship of the '70s, as singer/bassist Julia Cumming and singer/guitarist Nick Kivlen deliver a one-two punch on fuzzed-out nuggets like "Wall watcher" and "Easier Said". Sunflower Bean may be young and new to the scene, but their infectiously energetic live shows prove they can rock with the best of their classic rock forebears.
