Bio
Blue country roots or poetry with melody; as their funky beats move your feet, their tales will tease your mind. Inspired by artists like Nick Cave, Bob Dylan, Xavier Rudd and The Mountain Goats, together Soldiers of the Sun combine beautiful acoustic melodies with funky rhythms and a modern approach to musical storytelling. From hookers to clowns, homeless fanatics, to a love affair with alcohol, a dog on death row and the boy who collected sound, their songs are stories you will tell your children when they are old enough.
A regular on Triple J and other national and local radio stations, Soldiers of the Sun have played a consistent string of headline shows in and around Brisbane over the past two years, including the Grass Roots Music Festival and Roots by the River Festival, Bundaberg Blues Festival and shows at The Great Northern and The Zoo.
Their music has been used in a number of Surfing DVDs, that have been featured on Foxtel's Fuel TV and at The Falls Festival in Tasmania and Victoria. They also recently won a Los Angeles Music Award for Best Blues Single.
