After the critically acclaimed 2020 album “Love & Ashes”, Blood and Sun return with the new EP "Ochre".

Written by Luke Tromiczak and performed by a rotating group of musicians from across the United States, Blood and Sun are known for dark and haunting songs drawing heavily from Americana and neo-folk – likely to appeal to fans of everything from Of the Wand and the Moon and Steve Von Til to Wovenhand and Echo & The Bunnymen.

Formed in 2011, the group has received international praise for its dark, brooding, and gothic songwriting. Blood and Sun thematically wrestles with personal tribulations and drive intertwined with metaphysical and pagan currents, delivering soaring and haunting melodies extolling the heroism and tragedy of life, its joyous excess and the vertigo of fate.

Blood and Sun weaves traditional folk sorrow with North American vastness, spiritual intensity, and a love of mytho-poetic realms. The group channels dark-folk with, voice, strings, the percussive heart, and the gravity of existence. Every song is a spell between rage and tenderness – carried by a deep voice and raw presence.
Their performances are like a bonfire warming, challenging, clarifying
