Everyday Sunshine: The Story of Fishbone

Narrated by Lawrence Fishburne, Everyday Sunshine is a thoughtful and honest documentary about one of the most original bands of the past 25 years that defied stereotypes, musical genres, an unforgiving music industry, and their own personal crisis' to manifest music from sheer determination and love for their art. Born out of Los Angeles, Fishbone fused funk, punk, ska, and an eclectic style that demonstrated pure creativity and courage, and though they came very close to commercial success, they were never quite able to grasp it. This is their story.
