The Sunday Underground is a New Zealand rock band, formed in Rangiora in 2013. Original members included Simon Bisseker, Jonathan Barb, and Matthew Phimmavanh. Bisseker left the band early on citing family commitments, and lack of band talent.

Jonathan and Matthew decided their songs needed to be heard by the public, so they enlisted the talent of Joel Mclachlan on drums and Matt's wife Jesse on Synth and got to work getting their set 'gig ready'. Jess

The first gigs were electrifying. that's all there is to say. However critics were reporting that the lack of a Bass player left people feeling like there was something missing.. So Matt went on the search for someone who could hold take a base line for a walk..

The peak of their career to date is an opening slot for fellow New Zealand band Sherpa, a gig they landed because the first choice support band pulled out at the last minute.

Today you can catch the band mulling around the streets of Christchurch, looking for their next opportunity to play a gig..
