About Wild Sun
Wild Sun is an alternative rock trio from Rhode Island featuring guitarist and vocalist Glenn Thomas, bassist Paul Fazio, and drummer Cameron Raubeson. Their 2014 debut album, Little Truths, was produced by Bryce Goggin, whose production credits include Pavement and Phish.
The album earned extended rotation on college radio stations across the country, helping the band build a strong following through extensive touring. Along the way, Wild Sun shared stages with artists including Eve 6, Blitzen Trapper, The Wombats, Langhorne Slim, and Rubblebucket.
In 2016, the band appeared on the Elliott Smith tribute album Say Yes! alongside notable artists including J Mascis, Waxahatchee, Julien Baker, and Amanda Palmer.
A New Chapter
After stepping away from the stage in 2019, Wild Sun has reunited and returned to performing with the same energetic live show that helped establish the band. Their return also comes with new music on the horizon, making this performance an opportunity for longtime fans and new listeners alike to catch the trio as they begin their next chapter.

The evening begins with a set from the Brad Bensko Band, setting the stage before Wild Sun takes over with a night of alternative rock.
