Hot As Sun is the raw tropical dance-punk project of singer-songwriter/composer Jamie Jackson and writer/singer Deborah Stoll. In 2010, they started Hot As Sun, releasing an independently produced 4 song EP that grabbed the attention of tastemakers and critics like Billboard and KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic.
Named one of Buzzbands' "LA Bands to Watch" in 2013, they released their debut album, Night Time Sound Desire, with Last Gang Records and opened for Foster the People and Phantogram.
With the help of Seth Kauffman (Lana Del Rey, Ray La Montagne) Jackson went on to record the Little Friend EP in her basement while pregnant. Reviews founds Hot As Sun "firing on all cylinders creatively, with its new wave flavored synths, reverb tinged drums and sultry vocals."
And now Hot As Sun the OG duo are back! Their new EP, It Was Bananas, drops summer 2022, complete with a new music video and their old bad attitudes.
