Congratulations on the groovy new track! Can you tell us about the inspiration behind it?

Thanks, Guys; there is some interesting inspiration behind ‘Sunshine Sometime’.

The track is about the longing for someone who cannot be described more than a beam of sunshine. The song's sunny and dreamy guitar tones dance around a backbeat that has the listener yearning for more, as the song’s lyrics suggest. Inspired by a visit to Manning’s Great Aunt Margaret in Melbourne, the song reflects a wholesome morning with a lovely individual, telling jokes and stories and sipping tea. In this respect, we all wish to have someone like Margaret, who can shine sunshine onto others. So raise your teacup/glass/whatever and tell someone you love them.

What are some of your influences, and how do they affect your song-writing?

We all write from very different aesthetically driven points at all ends of the process, creating a very broadly influenced mish-mash of colours within our sound. Joel and Leroy love 60s rock n roll, and this is obvious in the bones of each song. But when we get together as a band, the sound is injected with Manning’s love for 70’s jazz-rock, Jayden's eclectic and punchy drumming, and Sammy’s blues/rock, catchy bass riffs.

How did you guys form the band?

In 2015 Joel and LeRoy used to play as a duo but soon decided more members were needed to make this thing come alive.

So Joel made his way around the coast chatting to different people and, in his travels, made some great connections with Manning, Sam and Jayden, which then sparked the idea of inviting them to jam with The Good Love. Needless to say, there was an instant connection, and we all fell in love with the music right away.

Is there anyone you would like to collaborate with?
