Father Sun 

A multigenerational force in Psychedelic Reggae, born from the deep-rooted bond of a father and son rhythm section. Anchored by thunderous bass lines and drenched in cosmic effects, their sound pushes the boundaries of reggae into a new dimension.
Each member brings a distinct musical voice, creating an eclectic fusion that’s both grounded in tradition and fearlessly experimental. More than just performances, their shows are immersive journeys—celebrations of rhythm, spirit, and connection. Step into the radiant world of Father Sun, where music becomes a portal to unity, joy, and transformation. Let the vibrations move you and the message lift you—this is more than sound; it’s a movement.

About the Musicians

Each member of Father Sun brings their own unique flair to the performances.

Janiah Allen holds down the low end on the bass, providing a combination of steady root notes, syncopated rhythms, and melodic fills, adding depth and movement to the music.

Nyo Allen, Janiah’s son, offers his exceptional drumming skills, bringing life to Father Sun’s beats and creating a tight, cohesive groove with his father on bass.

Aram Skenderian on lead guitar adds a touch of virtuosity to the mix with tasty solos that complement the rhythmic elements and enhance the overall vibe. The band often invites additional talented musicians for live performances and studio recordings and can be seen backing other reggae artists from outside the region.
