Born from Lisa Sonoda’s creative vision, Sonoda began as a solo project in 2016 before expanding into a full live band. The project has released a sequence of reflective records—Clearing I (2016) and Clearing II (2017) with minimal, looping textures; Karaoke Life (2018) expanding the cinematic dream-pop palette; and more recent releases like Pohaku (2025) and Purpose (2021). Sonoda has performed at notable festivals and toured with artists such as Mutual Benefit, Hater, Jane Weaver, and Vanishing Twin. The music is characterized by airy vocals, lush guitar work, and spacious, introspective vibes suited to intimate venues and club stages alike.
Upcoming 2025 tour activity features visits to venues such as Moroccan Lounge, Constellation Room, Lodge Room Highland Park, and Townhouse Venice.
