about
9 Volt Sun were formed in North London in late 2009 by three young musicians brought together by a shared love of Krautrock and 60s Psychedelia from around the globe. These were James Wong (Vocals / Sitar), Sam Edis (Guitar / Synth) and Ross Taylor (Drums). They set out with the intention to modernise and adapt these hallowed sounds from the past to create something new and in tune with the everyday experience of those living and growing today. By incorporating elctronic sounds and effects, 9 Volt Sun have been able to get their unique message across to a generation of students fed largely on dub-step and rave culture, without sacrificing any of the good times associated with such happenings. In 2010 the line-up was completed by Richard Hartley (Bass) and throughout the year the band performed successful gigs across London before Rich was to relocate to Australia, where he appeared on six episodes of 'Letters and Numbers' (or 'Countdown' as it is known in the UK). The band recorded new material in his absence and, with his return being imminent in April 2011, will soon be performing their new material prodigiously both in London and around the UK.
