Explore The Sunshine Revue's Musical Adventure

Recorded somewhere between public frustration and a sunset ribbon-cutting, Boondoggle Beach is the shimmering 1977 masterwork from The Sunshine Revue — a beachside civic variety band unafraid to ask who approved this, who’s paying for it, and why the consultants seem to be having such a great time.

From narrowed lanes to grand plans, from old-house rebrands to new-city-hall fantasies, these songs celebrate the residents still brave enough to read the fine print, question the slideshow, and say no when no is the only sane answer.

Studio Sessions... Meet the Revue!

Delia Ray

Lead vocals, tambourine, righteous side-eye
The sharp-tongued voice of the people. Equal parts glamour, grit, and public comment.

Tommy Vale

Lead vocals, rhythm guitar, spoken-word announcements
Sounds like a smooth late-night host until he starts reading the cost overruns.

Marlowe Keys

Wurlitzer, piano, Hammond organ, backing vocals
Provider of velvet chords, courtroom tension, and every dramatic civic flourish.

Ray “Drawdown” Duvall

Lead guitar, lap steel, harmony vocals
Turns every overbudget project into a perfectly sarcastic guitar fill.

Benny Quill

Bass guitar, budget lines, deadpan facial expressions
Holds the groove the way taxpayers wish someone held the line.

June Holiday

Percussion, shaker, cowbell, harmony stack arranger
Adds sparkle, menace, and exactly one tambourine hit at the perfect moment.

Lenny Pierce

Drums, snare cracks, ceremonial applause effects
Drives the whole machine with the patience of a resident at hour four.

Special guest: “The Public Comment Singers”

A chorus of neighborhood voices, folded agendas, and beautifully timed disapproval.

Testimonials

Jasmine Richards

Found The Sunshine Revue —unbelievable energy! A triumph of melody over municipal nonsense.

Truly unmatched talents in performance and sound crafting!

Monica Chandler

A Florida variety spectacular for anyone who’s ever looked at a glossy city presentation and said, “absolutely not.” At last, a soundtrack for people who read the bill.

Thomas Krazinski

The greatest civic-rock variety album of 1977 that never actually existed. Like Fleetwood Mac got trapped in a CRA workshop.

Sun-soaked, harmony-rich, and deeply annoyed.
