Sons of the Sea is an indie rock band from California that is fronted by artist, singer/songwriter and musician Brandon Boyd. Although he is best-known as the lead vocalist of the alternative rock band Incubus, Boyd ventured into his solo career in 2010 with the release of The Wild Trapeze, and eventually put Incubus on an indefinite hiatus before starting Sons of the Sea in 2013. The band quickly released its first record, the Compass EP, followed by its eponymous 2013 debut LP, before embarking on an extended tour and establishing itself as an entity that stands firmly apart from Boyd's famed past.
