Sonic Blume is an indie rock band from Asbury Park, NJ, with Max on vocals/guitar/synth, Danny on drums, Noah on guitar/synth, and James on bass. The band formed in 2016, when the high school friends discovered they shared a mutual love of 80s inspired indie music. They released their debut self-titled EP in late 2017, winning them the Asbury Music Award for Best New Band (under 21), with a follow up EP in 2019 Beach Karma, both to rave reviews, landing them on NJ.com's Top NJ Bands to Hear in both 2019 and 2020. They then simultaneously signed to NJ based Shore Point Records while going off to separate colleges in NYC and Philly, to study music, but keeping Sonic Blume very much alive and well.
During the pandemic lockdown, they focused their time on writing their first LP and in 2021, released We're Drifting Further Apart, Aren't We?, named best Indie Album by NJ's Elephant Talk Music Magazine and embarked on their first tour, playing venues from Boston to Charleston. They have provided direct support for notable recording artists joe p, flipturn, The Happy Fits, and Tor Miller.
Their upcoming album 'All Your Favorite Songs' was released in late 2023. All members just finished college and live in NYC / NJ and are aiming to pursue music lifelong.
