   About Oblivion Sun
Oblivion Sun features the compositional and performance skills of five musicians who are at ease with complex musical structures as well as frequent improvisations. The band was started by founding Happy The Man members Stanley Whitaker and Frank Wyatt with Bill Plummer. Oblivion Sun create a powerful, dynamic sound that aims to satisfy fans of all music. The band moves beyond the boundaries that the conventional music industry uses to limit the creative spirit. Please join us live!

"I predicted that this would be the best overall show of the last 2 years, then I ammended that by saying it would be the best ever...and I was right on the f*%ing money!!!" - Ray Loboda, NJ Proghouse/NEARfest

"If you've not heard the CD, get it! You'll not be disappointed. If Oblivion Sun get within 200 miles of you - BE THERE! This is the stuff of dreams, my friend." John Wilcox, ProgSheet.com

"The music produced by Oblivion Sun for its debut release is as good, if not better, than anything Happy The Man ever produced, and leaves little doubt that this album belongs among the best releases of 2007." - Mark Newman, Progression Magazine

"If you like classic prog, you'll love this album" - Stephen Fortner, Keyboard Magazine
