AV Super Sunshine Bio

AV Super Sunshine is building buzz and expanding fan base through DJ club play, radio play, social media and music video programming. With the grass roots support of 250K+ fans across demographic and geographic boundaries, AV Super Sunshine is becoming more than the name of an artist, or a sound, developing into a movement as a symbol of inclusivity.

A native of Wisconsin, AV’s life has been anything but the conventional mid-western psyche. For 15 years he made no music whatsoever. "I got really sick," he relates. "I had a very big portion of my life that wasn't very productive. But that's when I started playing again and really writing from the heart. I began writing what I felt rather than trying to write songs to please.”

"I remember reading an interview with David Bowie where he explained his views about writing from the heart. Bowie felt that because he was a human, if he wrote a piece that moved himself, other humans would be moved too. I believe that. I always write songs from my own experience that other people will understand, with the hope that maybe I can somehow help.”

AV's newly found motivation began by seizing an invitation to host Wisconsin's oldest weekly open mic as a way to wean off anti-depressants.  The once reclusive artist got off the couch in 2013 and hit the ground running! Within a few months’ time of showcasing his songs, he received an invitation to record at Ben Folds Studio in Nashville.   While recording at Ben’s, he received his unique name from Grammy nominated, songwriter producer James House who crafted it by combining the artist’s initials of AV with his song title“ Super Sunshine Girl” to form AV Super Sunshine.

The AV Super Sunshine name fits both the artist and his music perfectly.  When asked about his songs and inspiration, AV explains, “It’s real personal. I’m a long-term, severe abuse victim but trying to fight the good fight. A few years ago I was diagnosed with severe PTSD, depression and anxiety disorder. I’ve used songwriting as a way to cope.”

AV's Baby Goodbye was released to CMJ radio as a single in July 2015 and with grass-roots fan support hit #7 on Billboard's Hot Singles Sales chart in October 2015.  A follow up Just Like Kurt Kurt Cobain tribute EP (CMJ Top 100) went to radio in October 2015 followed in May 2016 by a Baby Goodbye CD (CMJ Top 100) which spent 21 weeks on the CMJ chart.

In October 2016, Bass Face, a collection of radio friendly pop-rock-art songs produced by legendary hit maker Michael Bradford was released to Triple A, Alternative, CMJ and Pop radio.  After several of the album tracks showed up on the global indie crossover club charts a CD of dance remixes entitled “Bass Face Remixes” was released in 2017 which produced three number one dance and crossover hits, “Baby Goodbye”, “I Am Alien” and “Smile”.

For 2018 a new collection of dance remixes entitled “Candyland Remixes Volume 1” is being completed.  The first two singles, “Apple” (which was played by a record 48K indie club DJs worldwide) and “Orange” have already each achieved number one dance and crossover charts.
