About This Show
Sunny War is an American singer and songwriter from Nashville, Tennessee. Her sound is frequently categorized as folk punk, while her songwriting is often described as introspective. Her songs blend rock, gospel, and country music. She began her music career in 2014 with the release of her extended play Worthless, but garnered mainstream attention and critical praise after the release of her 2020s albums. When she was in middle school, she moved from Tennessee to California. She taught herself to play the guitar from watching and mimicking how her friend’s father played the banjo, which resulted in her distinctive finger picking style.
This concert features an opening act from Death Ray Robin. Death Ray Robin is an Alt-R&B act featuring Black-Korean vocalist Desirée Richardson and a rotating cast of instrumentalists from Columbia, SC. Best known for her mellifluous soprano and straightforward yet poetic pop sensibilities, Richardson vacillates between genres, writing about themes of self-preservation, identity, revenge, forgiveness, and hope.
