The world is a dumpster fire wrapped in a hellfire roasting in a barbecue pit, but Hot As Sun, aka Jamie Jackson and Deborah Stoll, are dropping a new EP. 
  
Joined by Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Beck, St. Vincent, Nine Inch Nails) on bass and mixing duties, the new EP — It Was Bananas — is a jagged mashup of rebellious hooks and raw, tropical, dance-punk buzz.  
 
“During the lockdown, T.P. Orchestre Poly-Rythmo and Rachel Yoder’s book, Night Bitch inspired me to pick up a bass and just get wild and honest. Motherhood, especially during a pandemic, is complicated and I felt lost creatively, but as the songs started to come…I realized being a mom was very f**cking rock- n-roll. With the help of Deborah, I tapped back in. She always lights the match.” -Jackson 
  
“The moment Jamie and I started writing together again it was euphoric pandemonium. Lyrics and sounds and images and reminiscences of our long-lost LA summer nights… To me, It Was Bananas embodies our combined psyches processing lunatic lives the best way we know how—by turning them into primal, sweaty, riotous songs.” -Stoll
  
Two independently accomplished women in their own right, Jamie composes for film & TV and is currently scoring Apple TV’s upcoming drama, Bad Monkey. Deborah is a widely published writer, working on her second book for Harper Collins about the rise of female, LQBTG and non-binary skateboarders, dropping Spring, 2023.   
  
Hailing from Mississippi and NYC respectively, Jamie and Deborah began releasing music as Hot as Sun after meeting over a soundbath at the Integreton in Joshua tree. Lauded by the LA Times as sounding like “Kate Bush at her first fake-ID rave” and writing “John Hughes montage-ready songs that sound like the Supremes throwing a dance party with the Strokes,” they’ve opened for Phantogram, Foster the People and Gotye and created rooftop water ballet pool parties and multi-media downtown underground art performances “that may owe something to the Velvet Underground at the Exploding Plastic Inevitable.” 
  
New EP, new videos, old attitudes, fall 2022.
