City of the Sun is a New York–based instrumental trio known for their cinematic, genre-blurring sound that fuses flamenco, post-rock, world music, and ambient textures into sweeping, emotionally charged compositions. Built around intricate acoustic guitar interplay, pulsing percussion, and hypnotic grooves, the band creates immersive soundscapes that feel both intimate and expansive—like a film score unfolding in real time.

Rising from street performances in NYC to international stages, City of the Sun built a global following through viral live videos and word-of-mouth buzz. Their music—entirely instrumental—transcends language barriers, drawing listeners into dynamic crescendos, delicate melodic passages, and rhythmic builds that reward both focused listening and live experience.

With releases including To The Sun And All The Cities In Between and Chapter I, the trio has carved out a distinctive space in the modern instrumental world, captivating audiences across Europe, North America, and beyond. Whether in a seated theater or a standing-room venue, City of the Sun delivers a powerful, transportive performance that turns melody and rhythm into pure atmosphere.

HENRY WALTERS:
The notorious Henry Walters is known across the Midwest music scene for his innovative pop sensibilities and unique aptitude for sonic mayhem. Since 2018, Henry has been independently releasing music and performing live as a solo artist. Currently, the artist performs with his backing band composed of Dante Schoof on Bass, Sid Walters on Drums, and backing vocalist Jane Walters.

Whether melting faces with his band or wooing the crowd with his solo performances, one can expect the unexpected from this up and coming musical enigma.

    Experimental Rock

    The experiential music of City of the Sun is the sound you didn’t know you were missing. New York City’s powerhouse trio flip the perception of instrumental music, attracting a whole new generation to the genre. 
     
    Formed in 2011, City of the Sun features guitarists John Pita, Avi Snow, and percussionist Zach Para. The band’s sound has an array of influences including indie rock, American folk, flamenco, and blues; it’s been called worldly, cinematic, a mix between Rodrigo y Gabriela and Explosions in the Sky. 
     
    COS has since been established as significant players in the post-rock sphere. They’ve sold out New York’s top indie venues Brooklyn Steel, Irving Plaza, Bowery Ballroom and Gramercy Theater; toured with Peter Bjorn & John, G.Love, STS9, and Thievery Corporation; were featured emerging artists at Panorama NYC, Billboard’s Hot 100, Firefly, Bottle Rock Napa music festivals; and scored “The C Word” documentary soundtrack (directed by Meghan O’Hara and narrated by Morgan Freeman). 
     
    After completing two European tours including major sold-out shows in Athens, Greece, the band released UNTITLED EP. Lead track “Perfect Instance” has gained 18 million Spotify streams to date, contributing to over 70 million plays on the platform overall.
