40 Watt Sun

40 Watt Sun is the musical project of British singer, guitarist and songwriter Patrick Walker, founded in early 2009 following the dissolution of his previous band, Warning, one of the most important, highly regarded and influential bands to emerge from the ‘90s doom metal scene.

Initially formed as a three-piece with drummer Christian Leitch and bassist/producer William Spong, 40 Watt Sun is now the project of Patrick Walker as its centre and sole stable member, alongside a group of revolving musicians.

Hank Shteamer of Rolling Stone magazine has described the band's music as "a poetic, gradually unfolding dirge rock."
