Sonic Boom Six Biography
Having toured the world for the last two decades, Sonic Boom Six took the turbulent times of the lost lockdown years to take a deep breath, watch, and create. The band emerge from the rubble of culture and politics in 2023 with new Double A-side single ‘Future Shock’ b/w ‘One of The Boys’.
‘Future Shock’ drops with quite literally a Boom - the band’s signature mix of heroically heavy riffs with dancefloor-ready grooves serves up their horror at the increasingly polarised warzone of social media discourse. Double A-side ‘One of The Boys' skewers the old boy’s network that has dominated British politics for as long as we care to remember over a mash-up of ska-punk and bass music.
“Living through the last few years has been a challenging time” confides co-vocalist and lyricist Barney Boom, “and I’d been struggling to find a way to make sense of world events. For the first time in my life, I can truly say that I’m lost for words, and I know many people feel the same. ‘Future Shock’ was me kicking through writer’s block by expressing that exact feeling of overwhelming frustration. This single is the perfect way to draw a line in the sand and move into the next phase of our career.”
In October 2023, Sonic Boom Six inspired a renewed sense of enthusiasm among their fans as they took their electrifying performances to sold-out stages across the country for the RE:Generation Tour. SB6 is back to remind us once again that music has the extraordinary ability to touch our souls, unite us as a community, and pave the way for a brighter future.
“The response to ‘Future Shock’ and the RE:Generation Tour has been unbelievable” excitedly exclaims main vocalist Laila K. “Having been away for a while, I was uncertain if anyone still cared, but judging by the response across these sold-out shows, they most certainly do. Our fans have turned up for us in a way that’s reinvigorated our love and passion for music and our message. And seeing so many ‘Kids of The Multiculture’ in our audience was so gratifying”.
“The first comment on the video on YouTube says it all” interjects Barney “‘This song is a pure distillation of all eras of SB6. Love it’. I can’t really add much to that!”
In January 2024, Sonic Boom Six is set to release RE:Generation, a new compilation of their material from the last decade featuring the two brand-new tracks from this single release. Throw in road-tested anthems like ‘Virus’, and ‘No Man No Right’ and we have a record that celebrates the band’s remarkable journey while continuing their artistic evolution. Currently writing and beginning production work on their new album, this is a rejuvenated Boom ready to take back the mantle of one of the hardest-working, most outspoken and inclusive live acts that this country has produced.
Bio & Notable Achievements
Sonic Boom Six is an explosive and outspoken five-piece described as "taking ska, pop, grime, dubstep, punk and metal apart, then rebuilding them as a hyperactive hybrid" (Kerrang! Magazine). With a live show infamous for "clashing activism and good times", SB6's legendary gigs are a party that started in Manchester, UK, transcending genres and connecting people from all walks of life. The Boom’s influences include The Specials, The Streets, Rage Against The Machine and The Fugees.
