Sunshine Anderson, marks her return with "Something I Wanna Give You," the first single off her
Music World
Music debut,
Sunshine At Midnight (due out in January). The song is instantly reactive with music programmers, prompting KMEL to put it rotation immediately and moving the radio ship date to 7/21. The video for the single will be shot in Los Angeles the first week in August with director Gil Green. A full stream of the song, which goes for adds on 8/28, is up on Sunshine's official site, www.

"We couldn't be more excited to welcome Sunshine Anderson into the Music World family," said Music World Music CEO Matthew Knowles. "She has the voice, the look, and the determination of a star. Sunshine has delivered a great album and we are passionate about launching her comeback."
Sunshine At Midnight is Anderson's first offering since taking the world of music by storm in 2001 with her Soul Life/Atlantic debut Your Woman, which exploded onto the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart at No 5, spawned the runaway smash No 1 hit "Heard It All Before," and went on to sell 750,000 units. With Your Woman, Anderson was embraced industry wide and enjoyed genre-busting mainstream successes that included appearances on The Rosie O'Donnell Show and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, as well as heavy video rotation on MTV and VH1, in addition to BET.
A native of Charlotte, NC, Sunshine Anderson grew up in an environment filled with love, support, and lots of music. She caught the attention of Soul Life CEO Mike City while attending college at North Carolina Central University, where she earned a B.S. degree in criminal justice. After a brief stint working in human resources for the government in Washington, DC, Anderson moved to Los Angeles to pursue her dream of becoming a professional musician.
Anderson has been touted for her rich vocals, no-nonsense lyrics and classic soul sensibilities, drawing comparisons to Mary J. Blige. Supporter and friend Macy Gray has heralded Anderson as "a star through and though," adding that the vocalist/ songwriter "has a fabulous way of being every girl and completely unique at the same time."
Anderson currently makes her home in Atlanta, GA. Sunshine At Midnight will be released by Music World Music in January.
