Artist Spotlight: Bad Suns

Bad Suns is an alternative rock band from Woodland Hills, CA. They released their second studio album titled ‘Disappear Here’ last Friday, September 16th. In celebration of the album’s release, I wanted to take the time to write about Bad Suns!

Bad Suns consists of band members: Christo Bowman (lead vocalist), Gavin Bennett (bassist), Miles Morris (drummer) and Ray Libby (guitarist). They released their debut album titled ‘Language & Perspective’ in 2014, and since then have been touring with bands such as The Neighbourhood, HUNNY, and Halsey to name a few. They have performed at many different music festivals such as the Firefly Music Festival and Coachella. They are going to perform at Austin City Limits this October.

Bad Suns credit their sound to bands such as The Cure and Elvis Costello. Their music definitely sounds like something you could listen to while at the beach on the shores of California, or even when going for a day or night cruise.

‘Salt’ is about a transgender person struggling throughout their lives without having an identity. The video shows how they perceive themselves, and how people are abusive and cruel toward them as a result of being transgender.

'Disappear Here' is the song named after the album... or vice versa. Either way, this is one of the newer tracks.

‘Take My Love and Run’ is just one of those songs that has a feel-good sound to it, but the lyrics are actually pretty depressing when you listen to them closely.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
