City of the Sun’s new album, Under the Moon, marks a return and feels like stepping out of the shadows and into new sunlight. Produced with the legendary Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, Father John Misty, Built to Spill), the record bends through moods and geographies: the rolling surf of “Angeles,” the spaghetti-western hush of “Bajo la Luna,” the desert rock pulse of “Ciudad del Sol,” and the Mediterranean sway of “Hotel Alma.”

Formed by guitarist John Pita and joined by drummer Zach Para, the band later introduced bassist Matt Fasano and guitarist Marco Bolfelli. City of the Sun creates music that feels at once intimate and cinematic—like a film you can step inside. Since their debut in 2016 with To The Sun and All the Cities in Between, through their 2020 self-titled album and 2022’s Segunda Alma, the band has built a cult following around the globe.

Valley Wolf is a Latin-psychedelic band from Modesto, CA. Their music blends psychedelic rock, soul, cumbia, and quebradita rhythms to make people connect to something primal within, creating a bouncy, pulsating sound that makes people want to dance. Be ready for “puro pinchi pari” as their music is meant to be experienced with dancing shoes - or chanclas - on any dance floor, where people can be found swaying, jumping and sometimes even laughing. The band has built a loyal following through their infectious live shows and have earned them slots alongside acclaimed acts like Enjambre, Ramona, Son Rompe Pera, and E Arenas.
