After coming home and forming his first band, several years of false starts and frustrations followed. This only served to strengthen Jon's will. Like John Lydon before him, Jon Harris sees anger as energy. It quickly becomes apparent that this is a very singular talent, fuelled by a self-belief that isn't easily dampened. I think a lot of my songs are quite uplifting, but they are inspired by, shall we say, dark events.
Anger is a great motivation for songwriting - come to think of it, drugs are pretty effective, too.
Besides Jon, there are four other members in Sunna. As the band's DJ, and purveyor of his craft for the past 10 years in London, Flatline is responsible for the additional noises and atmospherics surrounding the music. Richie Mills, the band's drummer, was formerly a four year member of the UK band, Cable. The band toured both England and the US extensively before Richie left to join Sunna last year. Lead guitarist Ian MacLaren has been with John Harris the longest, initially as a member of Jon's first band, and then he joined Jon for the creation of Sunna.
