Live Music with Creatures of the Sun

Live Music with Creatures of the Sun

Hailing from Charlotte, North Carolina, Creatures of the Sun dish out a hazy mix of surf and garage rock that’s equal parts raw and infectious. Jangly, reverb-soaked guitar riffs, pulsing rhythms and catchy melodies draw inspiration from the rebellious energy of 60's garage rock legends like The Kinks, the driving edge of The Strokes, and the unruly charm of The Black Lips. They deliver a sound made for late nights, loud speakers and endless motion.
