With intricate guitar work, searing lyrics, and an unflinching point of view, Sunny War blurs the lines between punk, folk, blues, and soul. Her latest album, Armageddon in a Summer Dress, is a powerful and personal meditation on loss, resilience, and transformation. Written in a creaky old house in Chattanooga—while unknowingly hallucinating from a gas leak—these songs pull from real ghosts and imagined ones, weaving poetic stories of all the selves we leave behind.
A breakout star following her 2022 album Anarchist Gospel, Sunny has shared stages with Bonnie Raitt, Mitski, Iron & Wine, and Sarah Shook. Her signature blend of punk urgency and roots tradition has earned her praise for both her virtuosic guitar playing and her fearless songwriting. Whether it’s the snarling “Walking Contradiction” featuring Steve Ignorant of Crass, or the introspective “Ghosts”, Sunny brings an unmatched rawness and clarity to her work.
Her songs are defiant and deeply human, layered with emotion and steeped in tradition, while never confined by it. Fans of artists like Valerie June, Rhiannon Giddens, and Patti Smith will feel at home in Sunny’s presence.
Join us for an evening of cathartic, genre-defying music from one of today’s most compelling and uncompromising voices.
