Pet Sun Announce Debut Album, Premiere New Track

BY Calum SlingerlandPublished Mar 3, 2016

After dropping their Shade Driver EP late last year, Hamilton, ON stoner rock crew Pet Sun are set to unleash their debut full-length this spring. Simply titled Pet Sun, the record will arrive in early March.

With 11 new songs under their belt, the self-proclaimed "rock'n'roll heathens" have also shared the record's first single titled "The Dawn," which you can hear in the player below. Prominently featuring a memorable vocal hook and a number of ferocious drum fills, it's apparent why the song sits as the album's opening track.

Along with the album announcement, the band have announced a supporting tour that will keep them on the road for two months through Canada and the United States. March will see them trek through the southern states, highlighted by appearances at SXSW in Austin, while April will see more dates in their home and native land including stops in Hamilton, Montreal, Oakville and Toronto.

Pet Sun's self-titled debut will see release on March 11 through the Hand Recordings. Scroll through the record's tracklisting below to hear "The Dawn" and find out where you can find the band live throughout March and April.
