When she started playing guitar at age seven, Sunny War saw herself as the next Slash or Angus Young, a future shredder, certain to be a rock star, and definitely NOT a folk singer. And yet, here we are, it’s 2023 and thanks to her excellent latest album, Anarchist Gospel, and a Triple A-radio hit single, “No Reason,” she is finally getting well-deserved recognition as one of the most exciting folk singers of her generation. In episode 89 of the LSQ podcast, get to know Sunny’s story, and how she went from playing in a punk band called Anus Kings and busking on the Venice Beach boardwalk to performing her ecstatic folk anthem “No Reason” on late night television and embarking on her biggest tour, to date. Get tickets for Sunny War’s current tour here.
