Here comes Sun K

Toronto band Sun K visits the Townehouse March 26 as part of a tour to promote its album, Northern Lies.

A press release describes the album as “blues, dirty rock and roll, thrown in a folk blender with just the right amount of spit and shine.”

“A lot of these songs have been with me for a while, when I was doing more of a folkie thing on my own,” said the band's frontman, Kristian Montano.

“But as the band came together, we started experimenting with heavier tones and seeing how what we all brought to the sound could be incorporated. We wrote more songs along the way, and I think the album overall reflects this journey of discovery we’ve been on for the past two years. It’s been really interesting.”

The concert kicks off at 11 p.m. Tickets cost $7 at the door.
