Hail the Sun emerges as a pulsating force within the realm of post-hardcore, infusing their music with raw emotion and all that comes with it. Formed in 2009 in Chico, California, the dynamic quintet comprises Donovan Melero on vocals, Aric Garcia on guitar, John Stirrat on bass, Shane Gann on guitar, and touring drummer Allen Casillas. In the early years, Hail the Sun was the band you’d see playing dingy DIY clubs and small dive bars, throwing caution to the wind while catapulting their bodies and instruments every which way. That  same energy has seen them graduate into larger and larger venues while simultaneously cultivating an increasingly diverse and rabid fanbase.  From their debut ep "Elephantitis" to their later releases like "New Age Filth" and "Divine Inner Tension,” Hail the Sun has consistently pushed the envelope, exploring themes of introspection, existentialism, and human connection. Their lyrics are thoughtful and poetic, exploring the complexities of the human experience with a raw honesty that resonates deeply with listeners. Renowned for their stellar live performances, Hail the Sun delivers a powerhouse of energy on stage, captivating audiences with their infectious enthusiasm and musicianship. With each performance, they create an electric atmosphere that leaves a lasting impression on all who witness their sonic assault.  As they continue to evolve and innovate, Hail the Sun remains at the forefront of the post-hardcore scene, pushing boundaries and challenging conventions with their unique blend of passion, creativity, and relentless determination. They continue to perform within the same vigor as they did in their early years, only now with over 15 years of musical refinement that soothes the ears and cuts through the soul.
