Sunny War is tirelessly creating. LA-based but nomadic at heart, Sunny defies the notion of permanence just as she rejects the boundaries of genre. Whether crooning in a style reminiscent of smoky bars and stages long torn down, or hollering “No gods, no masters” on the crowded streets of Venice Beach, Sunny continues to refuse the barriers of categorization. Instead, her music is punk, blues, folk, and antifolk all rolled into one. It is precisely this rebellious, unapologetically individual nature that brought Sunny into the spotlight she never directly sought, preferring the home free warmth of daylight. Her newest solo release, With the Sun, was met with rave reviews from Rolling Stone, Afropunk, NPR, and many more, with NPR stating the album’s tracks “evoke a wondrous, breathless beauty and are filled with hypnotic, acoustic calm.”
 
But she’s not done yet. Just two months off the heels of her solo release, Sunny’s releasing a collaborative album between herself and Micah Nelson of Particle Kid, out April 20th. Instead of following the typical split LP archetype, Sunny and Micah of Particle War have opted for a more communal songwriting approach, with each of them playing or singing on each track, be it bass, drums, or backing vocals. It’s a release that’s drenched in the anything-but-typical demeanor of With the Sun, featuring mid-century rhythmic blues and introspective acoustic refrains. Above all, in her solo efforts and collaborations, Sunny shows us what it's like to live as a woman without a compass, preferring the direction of her own instincts.
