The Sonics continued in name for several years beyond 1967 as Jim Brady & The Sonics. This representation only covers the band from its inception to the breakup of the "classic" Sonics lineup, then skips forty years to the 2007 reunion group.

Sammy Carlson, The Web Slave

One of the best Rock Bands ever! Growing up in Spokane, we all loved the Sonics. I had two brothers that played and sang in bands before me. Greg who as in seveal bands "Electric Train" was one band in the mid 60s. They did Sonic songs as everyone else did at that time. I saw the Sonics a few times and later I sang a few songs in my bands, like the Hearts Beat Competition when I was in high school. Great Music!!
