With two guitars, a box, and bells, they create a sound that is far greater than the sum of those parts. Their music has been called “a re-invention of acoustic music.” It's instrumental, it's worldly; sweeping from wide-screen post-rock dynamics to gypsy jazz syncopations, "they define experiential music." Formed in NYC in the early 2010s, the trio has blazed a trail through the city playing everywhere from street corners, to lofts as Sofar Sounds alumni, to sold-out hotspots like Rockwood Music Hall, Mercury Lounge, and The Gramercy Theatre. They've shared stages with a diverse array of artists including Rock & Roll Hall of Fame member Marky Ramone, Matisyahu, and Greensky Bluegrass. City of the Sun has also traveled abroad to perform for exclusive TEDx showcases and TED Talks.
