Suns of Static

Since their start in the summer of 2009, Suns Of Static has been a steady presence in the Kingston, Ontario music scene. Born from the creative partnership of friends Bill Cassidy and Geoff Jarvis, the band has grown into a collaborative effort shaped by every member who’s been part of the journey. Today, the lineup features Mike Brown’s expressive vocals, Bill Cassidy’s understated yet impactful guitar work, and John Callahan’s rhythmic backbone on drums and harmonies.

Drawing inspiration from 90s rock and grunge bands like Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, and Stone Temple Pilots, Suns Of Static has spent years developing a sound that feels both familiar and fresh. Open tunings, heavy riffs, catchy hooks, layered harmonies, and heartfelt performances define their approach, but at its core, it’s simply about making songs that feel like home to both the band and their listeners.

Over the years, the band has released a handful of self-produced records, starting with 2011’s Begin Again, followed by Rise (2014) and Fall (2016). Each project reflects their growth as musicians and songwriters, always pushing themselves to try something new. In 2023, they revisited earlier work with Souvenirs (Remastered), and in 2024, they put out a reimagined 4-song EP called Echoes. Later that year, Suns Of Static recorded an Unplugged session at Kingston’s North of Princess studio, sharing 14 songs that captured the band in its most stripped-down and honest form.

Now, in 2025, Suns Of Static is back in the studio working on another full-length album of entirely new material. For the band, it’s not about chasing trends or breaking records—it’s about making music they’re proud of and hoping it finds a place in someone else’s story.
