“Every time I see the Sun it reminds me of my late brother Steven ‘Rocker’ Richards. I always say to myself he is watching over me. I wanted to make a record for the Sunrise Sermon and here it is. ‘Shine On’ is a tribute to Rocker and the almighty Sun.”
The release of “Shine On” on ALL MY FRIENDS Music comes in front of the return of DESTRUCTO’s Sunrise Sermon LIVE on October 30 in Los Angeles at Avalon and October 31 in San Francisco at Audio. Shows start at 6am PT to correspond with the fall sunrise.
