First there was Annuals. Then there was Sedona. And now, Sunfold. After splitting an EP with Annuals, Sunfold will now release their own debut album, Tomorrow! (July 22nd, 2008)
Sunfold is Sedona with a new name, but it’s essentially the same lineup as Annuals, but with each member playing a different roll. Annuals lead guitarist Kenny Florence takes the lead in Sunfold. The album (Toy Tugboats) will be released on Raleigh label Terpsikhore Records whose VP is Mike Robinson, bassist for Annuals. You can listen to Oregon off of the new album at Sunfold’s Myspace page.
As for touring dates, Sunfold have a Toy Tugboats tour (with dates listed below) planned. As for Annuals, it is rumored that they will be performing at Raleigh Wide Open. They will be one of the only bands formed after the year 2000 to play this event.... Maybe we’ll get a performance by Sunfold also and that will make two bands formed after the year 2000 to play RWO3. Or would it still be one? I’m confused.
