You Are My Sunshine

With its simple, memorable melody and folk-song style, You Are My Sunshine is undoubtedly one of America’s most successful love songs of the 20th century. Its success in the 1940s massively boosted the popularity of the song’s original performers, Jimmie Davis and Charles Mitchell, so much so that it helped to springboard Davis’ political career, culminating in his successful election as Governor of Louisiana in 1944. This arrangement for a quartet line-up is very playable and was arranged by Mike Sheppard. This piece effectively guarantees success at your next concert.
