    McGonigel's Mucky Duck presents Runaway Sun.

    In little over a year, Runaway Sun's self-recorded debut EP released in November 2008 garnered the band a nomination for Best Blues Group in the 2009 Houston Press Music Awards and an official showcase at SXSW 2009 playing alongside Grammy contender Diane Birch. The band recently released a 10-song LP, The Bridge, recorded in SugarHill's Studio A in eight hours.

    Live performances are a spirited introspective journey through a world of women, hoboes, whiskey, cars, and late night in the big city. Andrew Karnavas, former Houston Press Artist of the Week, fronts the band with a weathered voice, squawking blues harp and a clean rhythm guitar. Lead guitarist Daniel de Luna, who first toured Texas as a lead guitarist at age 15, thrills the live crowds with his improvised solos while Brian del Castillo fills in the low end with warm bass tones and Marshall West keeps the beat on drums. Runaway Sun has played a number of local charity events, including Walk Now for Autism and Empty Bowls Houston, and will hit the road on tour this February.

    "We say this without fear: by this time next year, Runaway Sun will be one of the city's best bands." – Houston Press
