Upcoming Podcast and Live Performance

I'm thrilled to share something quite special — this Friday, for the first Dharma Farm Podcast, we'll be diving into the eclectic and mesmerizing world of Sun Jr., a band that transcends musical boundaries
Meet Sun Jr.
Hailing from Boulder, Colorado, Sun Jr., formed in 2013, they've graced venues like Mackey Auditorium, The Boulder Theater, and E-Town, and have become a staple in Colorado's vibrant music scene, and at Dharma Farm, as well
The band consists of the exceptionally talented:
Jim Heekin on Guitar and Vocals, whose voice is like a twin-engine airplane, soaring and diving through desert canyons
Matt Kubison on Banjo and Vocals, whose voice echoes like a banished angel in the Rocky Mountains
Jeremiah Streets on Keys and Bass, adding a deep, resonating undercurrent
Jon Schimek on Pedal Steel and Guitar, weaving a tapestry of sound that’s both classic and innovative
Nod Norkus on Drums, the heartbeat of the band, guiding their rhythm through uncharted territories, and into the cosmos
Sun Jr.’s sound is a unique blend of folk, Americana, and rock and roll, infused with swirling psychedelic effects — they create a wall of sound that is reminiscent of legends like Hendrix, The Grateful Dead, and The Doors, yet distinctly their own
Podcast Interview
This Friday, I will be sitting down with Jim Heekin, the lead vocalist and guitarist of Sun Jr., to talk about their journey, inspirations, and the unbridled spirit that fuels their music
This is not just an interview! — this is a journey into the soul of a band that has mastered the art of free-flowing song structures and dual vocals that resonate with many, many listeners — perhaps, you will be a new one
