The Sonics
Here’s a gallery from Ink and Iron 2009 of the band “The Sonics”. The history of The Sonics is colorful to say the least and is part of the fledgling music scene in the Seattle, Washington area back in the 1960’s. The Sonics, however, are from Tacoma. Among The Sonics’ peers were Paul Revere & the Raiders, The Wailers, The Drastics, The Kingsmen, The Dynamics, and The Regents. This era of music, at that time in that area, is credited with the founding of Seattle’s well-known music scene that is still present today.
The Sonics are said to be one of, if not, THE first punk styled band back then. Though the punk scene or music really didn’t start until the 1970’s, they played a harsher style and sound than their contemporaries. The promoters from Ink and Iron brought The Sonics to the event in 2009, which brought in a big crowd of followers both young and old. The following gallery is the show they played at Ink and Iron that night.
