On The Verge meets up with Sleepy Sun to chat about the band and the weirdness of Santa Cruz
Sleepy Sun is an apt title for this young San Francisco sextet, as their debut record, "Embrace", is one of those rare slabs of rock and roll that will wake you up in the morning, and send you off to sleep at night. After honing their craft in the occult influenced creative community of Santa Cruz, the band has continued to grow, both creatively and in their loyal following, since their relocation to the city by the bay. With their throbbing rhythm section, swirling sea of guitars, and dreamy, haunting duet vocals, the word dynamic is a severe understatement.
Though the press is quick to rifle off a laundry list of rock's greatest ghosts to describe their sound, one live show is all you need to know Sleepy Sun have stumbled upon something very much their own. Having performed their raw, high energy show on stages shared with acts such as Howlin' Rain, Earth, Dead Meadow, and Citay, they are quickly establishing themselves as a very tough act to follow.
