Sonny and the Sunsets‘ Tomorrow is Alright came out toward the end of 2009 (If you haven’t checked out my best of 2010 list Sonny is on it…read that here.), and it was my fear that I would have to wait another 12 months to get new tunes from the popsmith that is Sonny Smith.  But just six weeks into twenty ten we get Sonny’s new single The Hypnotist out on Future Stress Recordings.

Act fast because the first 100 mail orders come with a limited edition comic booklet written and illustrated by Sonny! And if you are a colored vinyl dork like me you can get your hands on the limited blue/yellow swirl wax edition.

Sonny’s lyrics will have you singing along in no time.  This four song 7″ of Sonny’s signature acoustic pop features one track from Tomorrow is Alright, and three new songs.  I’ll leave you with “Stranded” so that you can ruminate on the track for a minute, and then hopefully make your way over to Future Stress to pick up a copy of this limited 7″ before it’s sold out.  ”Stranded” is on the b-side of this record, and I feel is a perfect representation of Sonny’s music and his honest and hilarious lyrics are why I’ve fallen in love with his songs.

Sonny is a very talented man, and if the comic booklet that came with the long sold out Love and Death 7″ is any indication I’m almost as excited about the comic as I am about the record….so now let me direct you to this link:
