Professional Reviews
Rolling Stone - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Franti's most poppy album yet is full of reggae hybrids and his best stab at arena rock: 'I'll be Waiting'..."
Billboard (p.40) - "Franti sticks to the good-natured beachside vibe of 'Say Hey' throughout THE SOUND OF SUNSHINE, which should please fans of Jack Johnson, Jason Mraz and the lighter work of Manu Chao."
