Migsonic Lead GuitarChris ‘MigSonic’ has been a San Francisco Bay Area musician since the late 70’s. He has been involved with several original music bands ranging from fusion rock/jazz instrumental to hard rock and contemporary Christian music. These bands have been the opening acts for Ronnie Montrose (1985 tour), BTO (Bachman Turner Overdrive), Bruce Carroll and Petra. He has sold over 1000 CD’s locally in these previous bands and has played at various venues throughout the state of California.
Hollywood Drums & VocalsMichelle ‘Hollywood’ started playing the drums when she was eight years old after seeing Bobby Brady wailing on a drum kit in an episode of the Brady Bunch. She saw that and was hooked so she started taking lessons! She was later fortunate to meet Sheila E. What an inspiration for a young female drummer in the early 80’s to meet a professional, woman drummer in a world where most drummers were male. She was in several bands in the 1980’s and 1990’s playing at various youth conferences, retreats, bars, parties and other venues. She is an accomplished songwriter having one of her songs published in 1988. In 1989 her band had the opportunity to open for DC Talk. She was the house drummer in a local theatre and recently on the TV show, “Do the Hustle”.
Eric B Keyboards & VocalsEric ‘Eric B.’ took piano lessons as a child and had an early love of live music. He played in two bands in high school that performed a variety of rock and metal songs. He drifted away from playing in college but never really lost the desire to make music. In 2012, a conversation with the worship band leader at his church rekindled his interest in performing. In October of 2012 he joined the worship band at Bethel Lutheran Church in Cupertino, CA whose members also included SA’s bass player, Chris and lead singer, Mary. In April, 2013 they asked him to audition for and subsequently join Sonic Addiction.
Jodisamus Bass & VocalsJody "Jodidamus" has been playing in rock bands and stage bands since 1975. First performing in Durango Colorado and Albuquerque New Mexico areas. In early 1980 he relocated to the Bay Area and eventually hooked up with lead guitarist MigSonic playing original hard rock and later Christian rock with both Mig and Hollywood in the early 1990’s. Jody has also been an active member performing Bluegrass music in the “Just Picked String Band” playing guitar, mandolin and upright bass. He is the newest addition to Sonic Addiction. Jody says that being back on stage with Mig and Hollywood is like returning home!
