Formed in Kansas City MO. in 1998, they met while in high school and began to perform at the local Kansas City venues. In August of 1999 Sunset Black made the decision to move to Minneapolis. They took the local scene by storm and one year later Sunset Black were sharing stages with bands such as Linkin Park, Staind, Fear Factory, System Of A Down, Nickleback, Fuel, C.O.C and more.
Sunset Black's big break came with a battle of the bands contest sponsored by Minneapolis' 93X. The winner would get to play at the station's X-Fest concert in front of 30,000 people. The X-Fest bill included the fast-rising,hard-hitting Florida band Nonpoint.
This kind of relentless touring should help propel Sunset Black towards their ultimate goal of sharing their music with as many people as possible. The band has also amassed a huge, close-knit family through emails, street teaming, and their website.

Like many bands before them, Sunset Black is no longer together or making music and now live across the country in separate locations. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
