Deep Blue Sun has one goal: to lay down grooves so deep they propel you off of your seat and onto the dance floor,. DBS delivers a high-energy party every time with originals and choice covers designed to keep the good vibes flowing.
Drawing on a wide range of musical influences including New Orleans boogie, funk, psychedelia, classic rock, jazz, country rock and more, DBS shakes it up into sound of their own with solid songwriting, harmonies and improvisation.
Deep Blue Sun was formed in 1998 by John Marsh and Katie Moore, former members of Apple Peru and the Grapes, bands that helped create the southern jam rock scene of the '90's. The band evolved through the years, and currently features Ben 'Buddha' Hernandez from Freak the Jones on bass, Ted Hoyer from the Caroline Aiken Band on drums, and Matt Lynn on lead guitar. Each new addition to the band delivers a new sound and energy to the act. The current line-up brings on the funk and soul like never before.
Deep Blue Sun has been featured live on Atlanta Radio Z-93, and performs throughout the Southeast to enthusiastic audiences. Venues and festivals they play include Earthlink Live/Center Stage, The Variety Playhouse, The Tabernacle, Atlanta Dogwood Fest, Chattanooga Riverbend Fest, Magnolia Fest, Harvest Fest, The Cotton Club, Jake's Toadhouse, Smith's Olde Bar and many more.
