City of the Sun

City of the Sun is a Brooklyn-based band whose instrumental, hybrid and cinematic music blends independent rock, folk, blues and influences from around the world.

Founded by John Pita and later joined by Zach Para, Matt Fasano and Marco Bolfelli, the group has built an immersive, borderless sonic identity driven by a strong emotional and narrative dimension.

Since its beginnings in 2016, the band has developed an international community and has shared the stage with artists such as Peter Bjorn and John and Thievery Corporation.

Their music evokes varied landscapes and deep emotional states, somewhere between melancholy, contemplation and openness to the world.

Their album Under the Moon, produced by Phil Ek, marks a brighter, more exploratory return, moving between desert, Mediterranean and urban atmospheres and incorporating new disco-funk influences.

The tracks address grief and loss as much as rebirth, with collaborations and cultural inspirations drawn from Latin and African music, among others.

The album closes on a note of transformation and openness, confirming City of the Sun as a band that goes beyond instrumental music to create a universal, emotional and visual language. -- Minors under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a legal guardian.
