Inspired by Janis Joplin, Rival Sons, and the free lovin' spirit of 1969's legendary Woodstock Festival, Children of the Sün embody both the carefree and reflective sides of classic rock music. In 2019 the band released their first full-length album "Flowers" which was received with great love from the audience and the vinyl sold out just a few months after the release. And now they're back with their second full-length album, and the natural progression of their story, "Roots". Psychedelic retro meets indie rock and blues rock, all topped by colorful, multi layered vocal harmonies.

People who like retro rock should absolutely give this band a listen, because it would be stupid to not do that.

Roots is an album that made a huge impact on me and I can see this being a timeless album in it's own right. If this is any indication of where Children of the Sun are heading, it won't be long before the world knows of this fantastic band
