Austin’s Larry Llodra has fronted a couple of Austin groups including noise rock band UVH. Llodra’s new project Roaring Sun is a hard turn from the hard, fuzzy songs of UVH, opting for a bristly, folk rock sound. The debut album Turn and Wave is melancholic and tender, raw and unflinching. The project was born after Llodra left the corporate 9-5 grind after a health scare for a cross-continental journey to get a hard reset on life and a renewed sense of direction.

“View So Blue” details Llodra’s first brush with lightness and optimism after seeking a fresh start, sitting on a flight heading towards the first leg of his journey, reveling in that first feeling of hope after bucking the burnout.

Turn and Wave is out today, and Roaring Sun’s FREE album release show is THIS SATURDAY, APRIL 26TH AT THE CACTUS CAFE with Jeff Gallagher.
