My Second Surprise is the project of Israeli-born Ayal Nistor, who lived in Britain for a time and eventually settled here in San Francisco. My Second Surprise began as a solo project before morphing into an ensemble of sorts, featuring a rotating cast of musicians. Nistor’s current line up includes guitarist Burton Li, trumpeter/keyboardist Danny Cao, drummer Bob Mills, and bassist Tim Vickers. All members lend vocal support as well.

Nistor and Co. have posted a new video for their track “Bring The Sunshine” which you can watch above. It features a crazed Yogi Bear-type, who probably watched one too many Guy Ritchie movies before descending on an unlucky picnic-going family.

My Second Surprise will be at The Hemlock on August 10th as direct support for Sporting Life. Vir will also perform.
