Drop the Sun
Drop the Sun first began in July 2014 as the synth/rock brain child of Sean Poe and Tommy Dudley. Using guitar riffs on top of backtracks, they began to progress from just a small project idea to a publicized rock duo.
“The Local 12 studio got a taste of a unique style of music on Sunday.” -Cincinnati WKRC
On January 18, 2015, they performed a song entitled “Missing the Ground” to promote the Madison Theatre Band Challenge they were participating in. The two advanced to the semi-finals. This success encouraged the two to expand from backtracks. They then introduced a drummer, bassist, and synth artist.
The following year, they played the Madison Theatre Band Challenge and made it to the semi-finals, yet again. They started getting show offers and continued to progress. They released their first 6-track EP “Are You with Me?” and began building a professional network. A year later they encountered a bit of stylistic conflict and lost a few members.
After sending out an all-call for new artists, Drop the Sun was inspired by the many creative musicians and ideas that flowed through the auditions. They eventually introduced brass, violin, and vocal harmonies. As their members changed, so did their sound, into the alternative indie rock style they produce today.
Drop the Sun has always stayed true to their message of peace and unity through artistry, and they continue along an independent musical track to bring unique instrumentations to awaken the creative souls residing in the Cincinnati area.
