Sunna Biography

Sunna Mimicking the likes of fellow alterna-metal bands such as Tool and VAST comes the U.K. band called Sunna. Fronted by Jon Harris, Sunna mixes dark electronic beats with thrashing hard rock to cast their own industrial-inspired sound of their own. Singer/songwriter Harris, who hails from London, formed Sunna with DJ Flatline, drummer Richie Mills, guitarist Ian MacLaren, and bassist Shane Goodwin. The band, who spent part of the summer touring with A Perfect Circle, released their debut One Minute Science in August 2000. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide
