Seven Suns

Seven Suns

A dose of hypnotic, genre-defying fun. In 2008 Seven Suns began in Liverpool, where Erica completed her music degree before returning to Canada.

Canadian singer-songwriter keyboardist Erica Van Drunen performs a variety of styles, from progressive rock to Celtic folk, under the banner of band Seven Suns. The band performed in the UK while releasing a couple of recordings, the debut album Who Are We (2010) and the EP So Addicted (2011). Erica and Edmonton-based drummer Dave Bowden returned home from Liverpool in 2011 and reformed the band.

Yay someone got a photo :) We had a blast at the L&M Grand Opening in Mayfield. The students did a wonderful job performing too (I felt so proud, but I think their parents were even more proud)
