Sunrise Sessions is the twelfth studio album by the Kottonmouth Kings, released on July 19, 2011. According to the band, the record has a more prominent reggae sound than previous albums, as well as dubstep and bluegrass influences.[4] 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.[4]
