Artist History
"Sundowner is a well-polished heavy pop band with a lot of style. Their crossover potential is off the charts. They're not afraid to be heavy or melodic,” raves IndieSound.com. Texas Music Magazine says "Sundowner’s sonic blueprint comes down to an engaging mix of melodic rhythms, vocal harmonies, and virtuosic guitars. Wherever they’re going, these guys are off to a promising start." (spring 2002). Ramiro Burr of the San Antonio Express News gave Sundowner four stars in a review of the debut Album "Wherever You Are" – "Austin band Sundowner hits the ground running with this fine debut album, an 11-track helping of muscular, melodic rock spiced with metal and punk flavorings." (January 18, 2002). Every song on "Wherever You Are" has been licensed for use in episodes of MTV’s The Real World: Las Vegas which debuts September 17, 2002. Sundowner is currently touring Texas and surrounding states in support of "Wherever You Are".
