Sleepy Sun Premiere New Single, Hit the Road for SXSW + Tour

SF’s soulful, 70s-esque rockers Sleepy Sun are set to have a big spring. The Northern California-born band, who crafts sprawling tracks reminiscent of Led Zepplin with an Americana edge, will release a new LP, Spine Hits, on April 10th as well as embark on a national spring tour and SXSW dates, listed below.

Following their past releases, Embrace and Fever, Spine Hits takes the eerie, yet familiar Sleepy Sun sound and makes it even catchier. First single “Stivey Pond” is lurking and creepy, like a road trip in the middle of a deserted desert; you don’t know what’s around the next corner and you’re bracing yourself.

Don’t miss the band of brothers as they kick off five shows at SXSW on March 14th or head to a city near you.
