The sun, the moon, the stars, heaven – this lineup is somewhere in between all of that. City of the Sun brings an eclectic mix of instrumental heatwaves that transport you to a sun-soaked beach in Barcelona where everyone on the beach is your best friend and somehow knows how to dance flamenco. And Sylvan, dear Sylvan Paul transports you to a mystic universe of psychedelic haze and raw rock. Together, these performances are electric (or acoustic?). Wind down, buckle up, and get ready to rock (or roll).
