About

Phonosonics

since circa 2015
Phonosonics is Victoria BC's premiere Rocksteady/Roots-Reggae massive. With their soulful harmonies, their blazing horns and their old-school grooves, the band has dazzled audiences across BC, bringing an authentic interpretation of 1960's and 1970's ska, rocksteady and reggae. Phonosonics is a fun-filled act combining the Rocksteady Soul of the old school with a modern touch and live danceability. Phonosonics invite you to free your behind, so your mind can follow!
