City of the Sun is an instrumental band from New York City. The group is composed of multi-instrumentalists John Pita, Avi Snow, and Zach Para. Their music blends neoclassical, rock, and jazz influences, and is described as "cinematic." Since forming in 2009, the trio has achieved international recognition for their uplifting and inspiring live performances. In 2012, they released their first full-length self-titled album. The release led to a sold-out tour across the US as well as Europe, and the group performed multiple sets at the premiere music festival, Bonnaroo. In 2018, City of the Sun released their sophomore album Warning Signs, with heavy touring to promote the release throughout the US and UK. As their career continues to evolve, they have become one of the most sought-after instrumental acts in the world.
