Sunshine Makers 🇨🇦

As their name suggests, the Sunshine Makers create music that radiates with a warm glow. With a bouquet of vocal arrangements, and the use of organic instrumentation alongside analog synthesizers, their sound is an amalgamation of modern and nostalgic vibes with deep roots in R&B, funk, jazz and neo-soul. Sunshine Makers began in 2017 as a Toronto-based project led by Brent Jackson (The Junction) in partnership with producer Ben Fox. The project was rooted in collaboration that provided opportunities to work with creative stalwarts in the Toronto scene such as Julien Barbagallo (Tame Impala), Odario Williams (Grand Analog), Aquakultre, Chester Hansen (BADBADNOTGOOD). After making London his home in 2018, Brent reconstituted the six-piece live band to include a fluid collection of players, instruments, and voices that aim to inspire movement, evolution, and collaboration. Sunshine Makers has shared the stage with a remarkable collection of bands including Shad, Dwayne Gretzky, SHEBAD, Odario Williams (Grand Analog), My Son the Hurricane, and King Cruff.
