Sonny & the Sunsets at Baby's All Right

Sonny & the Sunsetscurrent tour hit NYC last night (7/22) for a fun show at Baby’s All Right. Sonny Smith is a terrific songwriter and his compositions take well to different interpretations. With his current band, featuring the nimble, melodic bass playing of Shayde Sartin (The Fresh & Onlys), old favorites like “Too Young to Burn” were transformed with new arrangements. Sometimes Sonny is chatty onstage, but last night he mostly let his songs do the talking. Great show.

The Sunsets had a free day today which they’ve decided to fill with another NYC show — they’re playing Elvis Guesthouse tonight (7/23) with Lily McQueen, and Future Of What. Tickets, only five bucks, are on sale. Flyer for the Elvis Guesthouse show, a few videos and a list of remaining tour dates, below…
