“Well I am the wolf, that wears the clothing of the sheep…” This lyric is a fitting description of Strike the Sun. The five guys that make up the band are the nicest most laid back people that you could meet, but when the curtain goes up and the amps hit full song you’ll want to hide your girl and leave your poser wanna be rock star gear at home. This Longview, Texas based hard-rock band means business. Bassist Eric Allen and drummer Guy Farrell deliver a solid one-two punch as the backbeat, never getting lost in the mix or missing a beat, while frontman Chris Hulsey delivers powerful vocals in perfect pitch with the riffs of guitarists Mike Boring and Jarod Hodges. Strike the Sun has a set of original music that wouldbe right at home next to Clutch, Fu Manchu, AC/DC or the Cult in your MP3 playlist. But they aren’t afraid to mix in rock standards by Led Zeppelin or Ted Nugent. The band will self release their debut album this fall on CD and digital formats and is available for limited engagement booking by request.
