Hail the Sun

Hail the Sun, an American post-hardcore band from Chico, play a London date at The Underworld, supported by Blight Town. The evening presents the group's music in a concert setting.

Hail the Sun is an American post-hardcore band formed in Chico in 2009, blending progressive rock and math rock. Signed to Equal Vision Records, the group released its first album, POW! Right in the Kisser!, in 2010. The band's line-up at the time of its most recent material includes lead vocalist Donovan Melero, guitarists Shane Gann and Aric Garcia, bassist John Stirrat and drummer Allen Casillas.

Their recent work, cut. turn. fade. back., is described as their seventh full-length album, produced with Pete Adams and Johnny Kosich and mixed and mastered by Zakk Cervini. Its eleven songs address military conflict, humanitarian crises, addiction, lost love and death, and the band's lyrics often examine the nature of existence and self-reflection.

The Underworld is a London venue that hosts concerts and shows, and this concert brings Blight Town to the bill alongside Hail the Sun.
