Sunshine Records (Australia)

Sunshine Records (Australia)

Sunshine Records was an Australian pop music record label of the 1960s. It was established ca. 1964 by promoter Ivan Dayman in collaboration with musician-producer-arranger-songwriter Pat Aulton and entrepreneur-producer-songwriter Nat Kipner (who subsequently founded the Spin Records label).

Most of its releases were in the period 1965-67. Its biggest success was solo singer Normie Rowe, Australia's top male pop star 1965-68, who scored a string of Australian hit singles including "It Ain't Necessarily So", "I (Who Have Nothing)", "Que Sera Sera" and "Shakin' All Over".

The label reportedly ran into financial problems in 1966 and it was acquired by its distributor, Festival Records, ca. 1967.
