Sun Blood Stories is still here after 12 years. We are fueled by paranoia and hope, wonder and rage, and we do what we do like it’s the last time we’ll do it because one day, it will be.
We are a mass of harmonic noise distilled into occasionally delicate, but always haunting songs.
Over the years the band has taken on many forms. We are now in the sixth chapter of the Sun Blood story. Chapter 5 was a real cliffhanger. To recap: some of the band members took flight in opposite directions, others stayed rooted and the future, as always, felt like it never was and never will be, while simultaneously hurtling towards us in its inevitability.
Sun Blood Chapter 6 current arrangement:
Guitar + Bass / Aaron Clark Vocals + Guitar + Slide Guitar / Ben Kirby Bass / Nik Kososik Vocals + Slide Guitar + Noise / Amber Pollard Drums / Summer Sigritz
Sun Blood Stories is now based out of the unceded land most call Portland, OR.

Chief Broom
Heavy, brooding and yet uplifting, CHIEF BROOM reveals reflections of the fragility, monotony, beauty and horrors of everyday life. Centered around the songwriting of Boise, Idaho based multi-instrumentalist Shadrach Tuck and featuring a revolving cast of collaborators including guitarists William “Cheese” Cheeseman (Sly Moon Sutra) and Frankie Tillo (Thick Business, Frankie Tillo), as well as contributions from Max Voulelis (Porcelain Tongue) on drums and Jake Marchus on keys. CHIEF BROOM’s debut album “hidden in plain sight” also features strings and woodwind contributions played by Ben Youtz, Kayce Guthmiller, and Shaun Scrivner.
A labor of love, this album was painstakingly completed in the wake of band co-founder TJ Tuck’s death, by his friends, family, and bandmates to honor his legacy and memorialize his profound impact on the Boise music scene. His presence is pronounced throughout “hidden in plain sight”.
