Sunrise Sessions is the eleventh studio album American hip hop group Kottonmouth Kings. It was released on July 19, 2011 via Suburban Noize Records. Recording sessions took place at the Cannibus Cabin and Electric Ghetto. Production was handled by member Daddy X, who also served as executive producer together with Kevin Zinger, and Mike Kumagai, with additional production by Brad Jones, Jim Perkins, Patrick Shevelin and Steve Dang. It features guest appearances from Jared Gomes, BJ Smith and Crystal Frandsen. The album peaked at number 46 on the Billboard 200, number 7 on the Independent Albums, and number 8 on the Top Rap Albums chart in the United States.
According to the band, the record has a more prominent reggae sound than previous albums, as well as dubstep and bluegrass influences.[3] The band recorded over 60 songs for the album; some of the b-sides are included as bonus tracks on special editions of the album, and others are included on Hidden Stash V: Bongloads & B-Sides, which was released later in 2011.
