Sunflower is the sixteenth studio album by American rock band the Beach Boys. It was released by Reprise Records on August 31, 1970, and received favorable reviews but sold poorly, reaching number 151 on the US record charts during a four-week stay and becoming the lowest-charting Beach Boys album to that point. "Add Some Music to Your Day" was the only single from the album to chart in the US, peaking at number 64. In the UK, the album peaked at number 29.
