Gainesville’s SUNSHINE STATE have released their new album ‘The Mess’ on Bandcamp for ‘name your price.’ The 10-track album is also streaming on Spotify, Apple Music, Google Play, etc.

Collectively, SUNSHINE STATE (which consists of ex-members of Against Me!, Whiskey & Co, J. Page, and The Scaries) have racked up countless beers, laughs, late night cannonballs, and miles on the road together, which they’ve translated into a strong bond of friendship, and most importantly…. a batch of really stellar songs.

The band says:

“Finally, 3 or so years later…after a self-imploding record label, getting jerked around(for 2+ years) by a separate garbage fire of a record label, and lots of beers / late nights… we’re releasing our 2nd album, The Mess.

Given the current circumstances in the world, we’ve decided to just give it away for free with the hope that maybe it will brighten someone’s day, week, month, year…or however long this craziness ends up lasting.

The record will be distributed on all the major digital/streaming platforms, and you can pay what you want for it on our bandcamp….but really, just take the free songs, we want you to. Save your money for something more important.

Any proceeds we happen to end up with will go directly to Warren, Troy, and Kyle’s businesses in a (futile) attempt to help them keep their heads above water.

Take care of yourselves out there.”
