What Kind of Shark Are You?
Some of us chase the horn solo. Some bring the whole crew. There is more than one way to be a Sunburned Shark.
Build your kind of Sharks night, from the encore to the ride home. No signup, no tracking, just a little fun between songs.
Find your place in the set.
Picture yourself at a Sharks show. Pick whatever sounds like your kind of good night.
Hammerhead · The Arrangement Adventurer
You came for a song and stayed for the unexpected turn. A crooked little rhythm, a horn line from nowhere, two records that somehow belong together. You hear the possibility in all of it.
- Finds the hidden gem in the record crate
- Always has one more song to recommend
- Would happily hear the long version
Whale Shark · The Front Row Friend
Your favorite part of a show is who you get to share it with. You introduce the strangers, save a place for the late arrival, and somehow leave with a bigger crew than you brought.
- Gets the group to the gig
- Knows the chorus is better together
- Makes a new face feel like a regular
Mako · The Dance Floor Starter
You do not wait for the room to warm up. One good beat is enough. You give everyone else permission to loosen up, and you are usually the first person asking for an encore.
- Turns an empty floor into a party
- Sings all the way home
- Brings enough energy for the second set
Nurse Shark · The Groove Keeper
You know a good pocket when you hear one. No need to rush the song or the night. You find your spot, settle into the bass line, and help the people around you do the same.
- Appreciates the rhythm section
- Remembers to bring the water
- Knows when to let a good moment linger
Made for fun, not marine biology. Real sharks contain multitudes too.
Our waters, our values
The personality changes. The compass does not.
Make room
The best rooms feel like an invitation. Onstage and off, we want people to feel welcome in the school.
Protect the source
Maine water, working coasts, and the communities around them are part of where this music comes from.
Stay curious
Cross genres. Ask another question. Follow the odd current. Discovery is part of the sound.
Leave it brighter
A show should send people home with more energy, more connection, and a reason to care for the places we share.
Community is part of the set list.
Sunburned Sharks has worked with NxMar, NEFSA, and Coastal College. Those relationships and the care behind them belong in the story alongside the music.
More project details can be added here as the band and collaborators are ready to share them.
Different fins. Same current.
Bring your whole school to the next show, then learn a little more about the real animals that inspired the fun.
