About
Sunset Rollercoaster are a romantic pop band from
Taipei, made up of Tseng Kuo-Heng (vocals/guitar),
Chen Hung-Li (bass), Lo Tsun-Lung (drums), Wang
Shao-Hsuan (keyboard), and Huang Hao-Ting
(Saxophone).
Their music immediately announces that the band
comes from a humid, extremely relaxed island,
synthesizing influences that have lapped up against
Taiwan’s sub-tropical shores: soul, R&B, and rock from
America, the neon-lit textures and jazz funk
musicianship of Japanese city pop, and the earworm
melodies and eternal melancholy of Mandarin pop.
Added to this is a DIY spirit and garage-punk energy
that could only come from years spent playing together
in their hometown’s fertile underground scene.
From these humble beginnings, Sunset Rollercoaster
have risen to become bona-fide stars, topping festival
bills from China to Japan, and headlining tours in North
America and Europe.
