Explains vocalist Camm Knopp: “‘Sunshine’ is about wanting change and growth. I wrote this song during a time when I felt stuck in the same cycles and was surrounded by people who weren’t good for me.

Eventually I reached a point where I felt like I had the choice to either create the change I wanted […]

I hope this song can serve as a reminder to people that it’s […]
