About Sunset Black:

Formed in Kansas City, MO in 1997, Sunset Black began performing at local venues. In August of 1999 the band relocated to Minneapolis and took the local music scene by storm. The big break came after the band won a battle of the bands and got to perform at 93X-FEST in front of 30,000 people. Their debut album, Common Ground (MCA Records), released in 2002, afforded Sunset Black the opportunity to share the stage with bands such as Linkin Park, Staind, Fuel, System Of A Down, Incubus and many more.



Common Ground is a compilation of emotionally driven hard rock that is as much melody and beauty as it is power and intensity. Each track features dynamic, multi-layered guitarplay, a tight rhythm section and beautiful melodies with raw, heartfelt lyrics.



Since reuniting in May of 2008, original members Brandon Sammons (vocals/guitar), Mike Evans (guitar) and Jamie Gehly (drums) welcomed bass player Scotty Springer whom they met in Los Angeles, a place all four now call home. “In life, people are always wondering what they are supposed to be doing and if its right. For the four of us, creating music together is right. So getting back together is what we are supposed to be doing,” said Brandon.
