Based in Portland, Maine, Sunburned Sharks delivers sun-soaked indie-funk R&B distilled from 60s soul, 70s funk, 80s pop, 90s rock, R&B, and classic rock rolled into one “gritty vintage-meets-polished modern” vision.
With bright guitar lines that catch the light like ocean spray, go-down-smooth vocals, and airtight horn lines that punch with big-band swagger, Sunburned Sharks has drawn comparisons to Hozier’s spiritual intensity, Lake Street Dive’s horn-fueled vitality, Vulfpeck’s vacuum-seal vision, and John Mayer’s guitar finesse. The setlist might take you from Whitney Houston to Marvin Gaye, Al Green to Fleetwood Mac, Tom Petty to The Dip, Bruce Springsteen to original indie-funk fever dreams—each delivered with an energy that could power a town for a week.
