About

Mother Sun (Kamloops)

Mother Sun create warmth with their music. Combining deliberate psych-pop and rock arrangements with a measured amount of absurdity and experimentation, the four-piece from the interior desert of Kamloops, British Columbia produces thought-provoking songs that weave melodic, contemplative vocals through colourful tones and jazz-inspired grooves. Mother Sun is Jared Doherty (guitar, vocals), Emilio Pagnotta (guitar, vocals), Alex Ward (organ, bass, keys), and Jared Wilman (drums, percussion, vocals).

Mother Sun formed in late 2017, with its four members being active members in Kamloops’ growing indie scene, each playing in multiple other projects. The band worked with Felix Fung of Little Red Sounds in Vancouver, BC to record 10 songs throughout 2018, releasing four singles in advance of their debut full length ‘Caramel Clouds’, released August 23rd, 2019 on their own Divine Bovine label.

The band toured BC and Alberta in support of these singles and their record, playing several dates in Vancouver, Kelowna, Edmonton, Calgary, Sun Peaks, and Whistler, as well as performing at Kamloops’ Brewloops Festival, Calgary’s Big Winter Classic, and Element Music Festival outside Princeton, BC. Mother Sun embarked on a Western Canada tour in fall 2019 in support of ‘Caramel Clouds’ before starting work on their second self-produced record ‘SIPS’, which was completed in March 2020.

During the first months of quarantine the band remained busy. They connected with US indie label Earth Libraries, who will release ‘SIPS’ on July 10th. Beyond that, they put together two free bandcamp mixtapes featuring local and Canadian artists for their label Divine Bovine Records, and reunited with Felix at Little Red Sounds, beginning work on their third LP.
