Thutch at Cobra Lounge

Stolen Sun were formed in the winter of 2003. Hailing from Teesside in the North East of England they have gone on to electrify stages all over the country with their infectiously heavy grooves. Fusing elements of Metal, Funk Rock and good old fashioned Rock'N'Roll, Stolen Sun have built up not only a rabid following but also a reputation as a ferocious, unmissable live act.
