Hailing from the creatively-charged suburbian outskirts of Toronto CAN., JP Sunga passes his time crafting, performing and mastering his own twistedly pop-centric tunes. As a reputable songwriter, JP has spent many years writing, collaborating and performing behind a number of artists, including work with Toronto's soul-rebel outfit "The Rice Junkie Collective".
His songwriting catalogue is thick, spanning over a decade long with a range of genres that would even make a radio dial blush. Recognized as one of Canada's top indie artists by the industry supported campaign "KeepMusicComing.com", JP is breaking down walls and defining his own version of the title 'singer-songwriter'. Whether strictly on vocals or accompanying himself on guitar or piano, his distinctive style and overall trademark sound is always apparent.
In a pool of aspiring artists, where many are great versions of others, JP sticks out like a sore thumb sounding like no other but himself. A remarkable and versatile songwriter, a humble vocalist and an intimately intense performer are qualities that make JP an artist to definitely keep your eye on.
JP, Thanks for stopping by the page, for your very kind words, for the friend request and welcome! No plans at the moment to perform in Canada, but have had some requests from people to come there and I would love to perform there.
Thanks for visiting my page! Pleasure to be here amongst your circle of friends. With Best Wishes, David
