Seventy One Sunset are an
alternative-rock band based in Auckland, who have drawn on a vast
range of influences to create their own unique sound.
Signed to AAA Records late in 2013, the self-produced Mule EP (recorded with
Andrew Buckton at studio 203) was released on the label early in 2014. The EP's
title track and video received strong radio and TV play, as well as receiving
critical recognition both inside and outside New Zealand.
http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/ said "There is a real honesty about this music, it
feels 'real' and grunty in an era when music often feels false and
manufactured" while www.muzic.net.nz followed that with "The music of
Seventy One Sunset has been described by the Rock FM as "great hooks and
solid riffs". An apt description of what can also be described as a
throwback to seventies Hard Rock with a modern twist. Hard and fast, an EP just
isn't enough. I can't wait to see more released from these guys."
In April 2014 the band entered Red Room Recording studios to commence work on
their first full length album. With producer Matt Te Matera Smith at the helm,
the sound of things to come started taking shape. The bond between producer and
band quickly formed, resulting in an extremely creative partnership.
Each of the guys has strong views on their role and approach to the band, and
are available for interview, but each was asked one question for this release
to assist in providing a broader understanding of where they come from.
