From its inception SunLikeStar has forged a musical style both high powered and captivating. In 1996 David and Greg began to lay the musical foundation for what would become"PAN", a band combining guitar driven rock with elements of electronica. Later that year David discovered a young vocalist busking on Vancouver's streets. This coincidental meeting would lead to Jonathan becoming the third member and frontman for"PAN".In 1997 they released a 3 song EP featuring"Allergy" before enlisting drummer Chris Crippen in late 1998 to complete the lineup. The foursome performed for a year around Vancouver and Seattle before changing their name to"SunLikeStar" during the recording of"Inverse". Mixed and recorded by Mike Plotnikoff (INXS, Cranberries) with Phil Western (NIN) co-producing the album's electronic soundscape,"Inverse" stands on its own as a potent and innovative debut.Jonathan Hetherington: VocalsGreg Bradley: GuitarsChris Crippin: DrumsDavid: Guitars"Huge Sounding"..."Brilliant in a live setting" - John Lucas, Georgia Straight, Vancouver"Surprise find of the festival (CMW Toronto)"..."Mesmerizing frontman"..."Gimmicks weren't needed" - Karen Bliss, RollingStone.com***Sunlikestar is now known as Art of Dying.***
