Day 10 of our 12 Days of Bands You Have to Know goes to the heavy melodic rock band, Pushing the Sun. Pushing the Sun is from the San Francisco Bay Area and they literally have exploded on to the music scene and have created quite a buzz. Their motto, “We will light up your life, we have fire in our hands!” definitely rings true.
Pushing the Sun was started by guitarist Billy Connally in 2012 after his successful instrumental album release, The Silent Canvas which was released through Steve Vai’s Digital Nations label. The band has been doing gigs all over Northern California to include the opening slot for the Rockstar Uproar Festival at the Shoreline Amphitheater. They came right out and started the festival off with their high energy blazing hard rock. Check out their video for their song “Tragic Love” which will have you hooked!
Pushing the Sun is Andrew Saman on Vocals, Billy Connally on Guitar, Johaan Hill on Bass,Neil Hagge on Keys, and A.J. Curtis on Drums. Their upcoming full length album “House of Lights”, whom they worked withTim Narducci (Systematic & SpiralArms) is set for a release in January 2014. We are excited to see what the new album has in store for us. Their music has not only well written songs but they bring in catchy hooks and explosive riffs that will leave you begging for more.
So make sure to visit their social media sites so you can get to know more about Pushing the Sun. Spread the word and tell your friends about this awesome new band.
