Ears Wide Open: Jag Sun

Jag Sun

The members of Jag Sun may look familiar if you knew both your local L.A. and O.C. bands. From the ashes of both Steelwells’ and Young Empress’ demise, the Glendale indie-pop band consisting of members Talip Peshkepia (aka Paulie Pesh, guitar/vocals) Jon Bradley (drums) and Robbie Gullage (bass) rise to play again. A bit wonkier in their new guise, the trio goes big on the first single “Modern Dinosaur” – bright choruses and and whopping guitar chords don’t leave them much room for pretense, and we’re all right with that.
