Two of Atlanta’s most popular rock bands- Today the Moon, Tomorrow the Sun and Jungol- played before a full house at the Drunken Unicorn on Friday, July 10. Both bands have gained a solid following with their inventive rock music and consistent touring around the city.
Sun captured the audience’s attention and engagement by supplying one hit after the other. Energetic lead singer, Lauren Gibson, never cooled, stomping and dancing along to the band’s experimental pop-rock hits. If she danced, so did the audience; when she slowed down, the crowd did too. Not many performers are able to hold their audience’s attention with so much suspense, but Gibson did it stealthy yet effectively. The other band members also initiated crowd participation. Drummer Jeremy Cole led the crowd into unified clapping to supply the beat for one of the songs, which impressively enough was maintained throughout the track. Gibson also pulled several people, including Mixtape Atlanta’s Veronica Yung, onstage with her to dance to one of the songs.
The energy created by Sun was maintained by Jungol. Before taking the stage, the band added neon light tubes creating a more visual experience to their performance. Jungol also performed with intensity and passion throughout their set. See all the onstage fun from the night by checking out Mixtape Atlanta’s photos.
