Bio
One Sun One Moon was formed for dancing underneath the stars on a night lit by one moon and music-making on days inspired by the warmth of one sun. Ger Chang and her brothers Vong and Yeng along with 'don, a long-time friend from the computer store, are One Sun One Moon (OSOM). Previously, the group collaborated under the band name Biscuitland with Denver artist and guitarist Aaron Reneaux until the fall of 2010 when Reneaux took his leave. At that time, Yeng (bassist) wanted to move in a more poetic-dance direction and chose the name One Sun One Moon, to which the remaining members of Biscuitland migrated.
All members of OSOM were born and raised in Denver except for Vong (drummer), who came to Colorado from Laos as a baby. The Changs are of Hmong ethnicity. Their parents immigrated to the United States in 1979. The siblings started writing songs in high school and organized shows in their parent's basement. They were originally influenced by the Cranberries, however, each member liked a different genre of music. Ger was influenced by Blondie, the Cure, and J-pop artists such as Utada Hikaru. 'don was a Pink Floyd/Coldplay/Silversun Pickups enthusiast. Yeng loved reggae and ska while Vong preferred the pop punk bands of the early 2000s. Their individual styles blend together to form a fresh garage pop rock sound.
