Not far from an Emu farm, comes a band from north of Milwaukee, Wisconsin called Once the Sun. All six members have been playing for years and have all played in different genres of music in various bands. The members of Once the Sun can be called a big family, because they have known each other for years. Josh and Sam are brothers, Eric, Josh and Jay have been friends since elementary school, Sam and Anna have known each other for years, Sam, Josh, and Matt have worked together before on a previous project.
Once the Sun was only thought of as a dream at first and was first talked about in June of 2004. Every element in the band was there except for one thing, a guitar player. Auditioning began in late June for a guitar player and after much deliberation a choice could not be made between Eric Kassens and Jason Rabus. The band decided that with the different styles of music that Jason and Eric brought to the table and their different playing styles, it would be more beneficial to have them both in the band and Once the Sun was born in August of 2004.
Now in 2008, Once the Sun has been in full octane pursuit at their conquest of audio world domination. With the full length LP "Shadows" being released in 2007 and their new 5-song EP "Blank Stares and Broken Words", it's only a matter of time. Between playing hundreds of shows, recording constantly, and cutting three albums, Once the Sun continues to surpass all obstacles, and always will.
I can't wait for the show at club anything next month... when r u guys doing the toys for tots again? I think robert told me, but... i was probably drinking if i was around robert...
I had a dream last night that Dr. Oz said on TV that Once The Sun was infinitely more danceable and better for your heart than Lockjaw. Seriously I did.
