At Sunset – Hailing from Adelaide, Australia, At Sunset features brothers Harrison and Andrew Kantarias, and their good mate Tom Jay Williams. The trio came together with two things in common: their love of music and their enthusiasm for the fun things in life. According to the press release, Harrison shared the name of the group.
“The name is a metaphor for our feelings towards music. We like to be upbeat, positive, and really just enjoying life. Playing music, sunsets, beaches, pools, girls in bikinis.. it doesn’t get better than that, does it?” Harrison beamed.
In the two years since making an online presence, the band have amassed well over 5 million views on YouTube; 300,000 combined Twitter followers; one million Facebook likes; and an ever increasing army of fans globally.
