About

MOD SUN IN CONCERT:

Mod Sun is short for Modern Sunshine, which in turn is shorthand for Movement On Dreams Stand Under None. With a name like that it comes as no surprise that the rapper's extensive catalog is full of relentlessly sunny tracks that are even more blissful in concert. Influenced by artists as diverse as Kid Cudi, Bob Dylan, and Wu Tang Clan, he describes his music as "hippy hop" - a combination of hip hop music and hippie culture. He refers to his fan base as his "friend base", and keeps that sentiment strong in concert where he interacts with ticket buyers to keep them thoroughly engaged. With standout songs like "No Girlfriend" and "Never Quit" -- an ode to marijuana featuring Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker -- his live shows are happy affairs that suffuse audiences in positive vibes.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Mod Sun, aka Dylan Smith, was raised between Minneapolis with his mother and Long Beach, CA with his father. He started playing drums at age 13 and by 16 was touring with pop punk and post-hardcore bands including Four Letter Lie and Scary Kids Scary Kids. In 2009 he underwent a hip hop metamorphosis and adopted the Mod Sun moniker, releasing his first mixtape Let Ya Teeth Show later that year. He followed up with several mixtapes and EPs over the next few years including fan favorites Blazed By The Bell in 2011 and Happy As F--k in 2012. His unique brand of electro-influenced hip hop has drawn collaborators like G-Eazy, Schoolboy Q, and Shwayze. In 2015 he released his long-awaited debut album Look Up on Rostrum Records, the indie label responsible for launching Wiz Khalifa and Mac Miller.

    by Hail on 4/3/23Nile Theater - Mesa

    We flew in from Canada for this concert and it was more than we expected! I had a 10 year old with me and the venue was outstanding to her while we were there. Highly recommend Modsun and Stand Atlantic. The Nile was freaking amazing with not great bathrooms

    by Flick on 4/3/23Nile Theater - Mesa

    It was my first time seeing Mod. This will not be the last time for sure! I loved every second of it and was glad that I was able to go. His stage presence was incredible and you can tell that everyone on his team including Mod, cared for everyone in that room about their safety, well-being and just in general. Security in ADA section who worked the night of March 31, 2023.. thank you for all you did! Your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed. Overall, Mod rocked it and I would definitely see him again. Thank you Mod for everything.
