Sun Graves

Hailing from the Southside of Los Angeles, Sun Graves is a Western Alternative Rock quintet that embodies the classic elements of rock’n’roll, yet is blended with a contemporary flare that enriches and fuels their unique sound. The 5 piece consist of guitarist Alex Ibarra, who founded the band alongside bassist Marlyn Barajas in 2013. Since then, a revolving door of great musicians have come and gone but as of today, drummer Gilbert Garcia, guitarist Mario Martinez and vocalist Art Lujan have completed and solidified the lineup Alex and Marlyn have always envisioned. Sun Graves’ ever-evolving twangy vibrations is a result of Mario’s deep love for Country and Folk music. Contrast to Alex’s who’s early 60’s pop style of playing and songwriting ability has created some of the bands best work. The baby of the group, which happens to be the most mature is Gilbert. His serious love for music and drumming has given the band the heartbeat needed to stay alive. Paired with Garcia, is bassist, Marlyn who is responsible for not only managing, but also provides the bands deep tones. Last but not least, frontman, Art is sure to captivate audiences with his melodious lyrics combined with his gruff delivery. With all its pieces now in place, Sun Graves is sure to make its imprint in the city of Los Angeles, and hopefully around the world. http://sungraves.bandcamp.com rock'n'roll band
