Bad Suns is an alternative rock band from Woodland Hills, CA. They released their second studio album titled ‘Disappear Here’ last Friday, September 16^th. In celebration of the album’s release, I wanted to take the time to write about Bad Suns!

Bad Suns consists of band members: Christo Bowman (lead vocalist), Gavin Bennett (bassist), Miles Morris (drummer) and Ray Libby (guitarist). They released their debut album titled ‘Language & Perspective’ in 2014, and since then have been touring with bands such as The Neighbourhood, HUNNY, and Halsey to name a few. They have performed at many different music festivals such as the Firefly Music Festival and Coachella. They are going to perform at Austin City Limits this October.

Bad Suns credit their sound to bands such as The Cure and Elvis Costello. Their music definitely sounds like something you could listen to while at the beach on the shores of California, or even when going for a day or night cruise.

‘Salt’ is about a transgender person struggling throughout their lives without having an identity. The video shows how they perceive themselves, and how people are abusive and cruel toward them as a result of being transgender.

'Disappear Here' is the song named after the album... or vice versa. Either way, this is one of the newer tracks.

‘Take My Love and Run’ is just one of those songs that has a feel-good sound to it, but the lyrics are actually pretty depressing when you listen to them closely.
