A VENOMOUS BLITZ OF SAXOPHONE DRIVEN CINEMATIC FREAK NOISE!
Blue Sunshine is the solo band of Vancouver based musician and visual artist Richard Lukacs. Following a two decade long anti-career in different punk, metal and noise bands, he started writing and recording his own lunacy in 2019.
Influenced by cult movies, no-wave and a Sun Ra record accidentally played in slow motion, he spent most of his waking hours since trying to find the answer to an eternal question; can one single punk sound like an entire acoustic noise orchestra? Most of us think about this all the time, but not many of us dedicated their entire pandemic to find out. Richard did.
Now anchored by his crazed saxophones and hallucinatory waterphone, with haunting guest vocals by the mysterious Sisters of Summerisle, and mastering by Grammy-winning engineer Alan Douches (Motörhead, Converge, Oneida…), Blue Sunshine is here to scorch!
