Hail The Sun - New Age Filth Tour 2021
Hail the Sun emerges as a pulsating force within the realm of post-hardcore, infusing their music withraw 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 theSun 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 15years of musical refinement that soothes the ears and cuts through the soul.

Hail The Sun is a progressive post-hardcore quartet who met in Chico, while studying music technology. The overlap of influences throughout the group has led them to become one of the most dynamic and intricate musical acts to come out of the scene in decades. Formed by drummer Donovan Melero and guitarist Aric Garcia (who played in a death metal band in high school), the original idea for the musical direction was to remain high-energy, while allowing melodies and harmonies to be a prominent feature, rather than just screaming to portray intense emotion. The addition of Shane Gann and John Stirrat brought additional flavors, and the group began to stretch its creative legs, allowing itself to write parts and songs that were much more heavily influenced by jazz, funk, blues, fusion, and Latin musical styles.
The group has toured extensively throughout its three-year existence, and has recently begun experiencing national exposure. They have one of the most high-energy live shows ever witnessed, and that's all while playing amazingly difficult lines and rhythms. Their drummer is their singer, which is a show in and of itself, and the addition of the other three acting as visual "frontmen," while not singing, lets the audience's attention move from here to there seamlessly, and without feeling bored.
