Sunny War

Sunny War enlivens traditional folk and blues by freshening her musical attack and writing lyrics that reflect 21st century concerns. Her first album, Worthless, arrived in 2014, and she continued to gain attention over the next few years as she built up a cult following that crested with the release of 2018's With the Sun. After a series of independent releases, War moved to New West for the 2023 album Anarchist Gospel. Her next LP, 2025's cathartic Armageddon in a Summer Dress, was recorded in her late father's 100-year-old house.
