About Me

Welcome to The Official Gunpowder Sunset Myspace page! Gunpowder Sunset is a Rock/Alternative/Pop band made up of hardworking veterans from the music scene of Sunny San Diego, California. Featuring members from the legendary Southern California Pop Punk band Larger Than Life , The New Addiction , and The City's Finest , this all star line-up is sure to rock you like a hurricane. Known for catchy melodies and harmonies, clever lyrics, amazing guitar riffs, and rock solid beats reminiscent of legendary Post Punk era artists such as The Replacements, Joe Jackson, The Police, Elvis Costello and The Attractions, and The Lemonheads, all the way to modern rock artists such as Alkaline Trio, The Living End, Green Day, and etc., Gunpowder Sunset is on the verge of breaking out all while establishing a sound of their own. Writing amazingly catchy and well structured songs that everyone can universally relate to is what this band is all about. Gunpowder Sunset is currently in the studio working hard on new material for the debut LP, "A Million Watts of Sound", but the band will first be releasing a debut promotional EP on 7" Vinyl (Limited Edition), Compact Disc, and Digital Format in the Summer of 2009, along with an exclusive link to a free download cover version of Madonna's classic 80's hit song, "Dress You Up"! There will be updates, new shows, and of course new music coming soon for all Gunpowder Sunset Fans out there, so please keep posted, you do not want to miss the GPS debut record release! Plus make sure to pick a copy of our Self-Titled EP coming out this Fall everywhere, so spread the good word and add a song to your profile page! Cheers to life, Rock and Roll.
