Sunday State began with
Michael Carothers and
Kurt Foster, two long-time musicians in the band-breeding ground of the Pacific Northwest who had known each other for 20 years casually asking,
“Hey, wanna write a few songs together?”
They began digging into instrumental demos Carothers had created and soon recruited
Jeremy Dietz (Mission Spotlight) on bass,
Thom Sullivan (The Pynnacles) on drums, and
Steve Turner (Mudhoney, Green River) with his fuzzed-out guitar work.
Their sounds has been fittingly described as a,
“post-punk, campfire sing-along sound complete with cinematic landscapes tethered to jangle riffs rooted in shared influences.”
Sunday State are preparing to release their debut album, which will arrive on April 2nd via
