It's Fryday, it's the Old Market, Bristol and its time to get fired up by the free-rock collective out of Massachusetts, USA.
It's a social, shamanic and informal music that welds properties --- Sundown guitar runs, motorik drum cycles, Groundhog pub R&R, psych-folk whispers, spaced electronix and alot of freak-out swagger.
Entering their third decade of furtive and fried transmissions, Sunburned not only manage to to live and breathe, but are producing some of their best work..check the bandcamp page -- https://sunburnedhandoftheman.bandcamp.com
Championed by the likes of Julian Cope, Thurston Moore and Byron Coley (who once called them a “human zoo”), Sunburned return to these isles for the first time for a while.
"Sunburned Hand of the Man (aka "Sunburned") are a loose knit gang of musical artists from the wilds of Eastern Massachusetts. Founded as a way to let off steam from years of obsessive weirdo record collecting and perversely decoding the hand jive of wanton talents from the psychedelic and punk rock hardcore scenes in the Boston zone Sunburned was born to be awesome. The nucleus of the group is a small ragtag contingent of fascinants completely focused on the idea of spontaneous composition within the framework of religious experience: the rock n roll EVENT" - Thurston Moore
Don Mandarin wonders in from all four corners. A sound poet, collagist, the voice of reason in a world gone awry. Don dips into occult diaries, distant roads and home truths to fashion songs of high integrity.
