Twenty odd years ago Spencer Krug began using the name Sunset Rubdown for his solo bedroom recordings, experiments too low-fi and odd (Snake’s Got A Leg) for what was then a blossoming Wolf Parade, but by 2006 Sunset Rubdown had evolved into a full band, with core members Michael Doerksen, Jordan Robson-Cramer, and Camilla Wynne joining Krug on stage and in the studio.
By 2009 the band had released three critically acclaimed albums, Shut Up I Am Dreaming, Random Spirit Lover, and (with the addition of Mark Nicol on bass) Dragon Slayer. Sunset Rubdown toured extensively across North America, Europe, and Japan, before quietly disbanding after their final show in Tokyo, late 2009.
After nearly fourteen years inactive, the band reformed for a suite of reunion tours across North America in 2023. In 2024, with the addition of Nicholas Merz on bass, but also the absence of Michael Doerksen on guitar, they recorded their fourth studio album, Always Happy To Explode.
