Sonicflyer were formed in Barnaul, a remote town
in Southern Siberia, by brother and sister duo
Yulia (vocals, lead guitar) and Dima (drums). The
siblings fostered a love of British guitar music
from seeing the likes of Oasis and The Verve on a
local pirate TV station, and in 2006 they moved to
London to pursue their dream. Quickly recruiting
Chris (rhythm guitar, backing vocals) and Rob
(bass, backing vocals), the band developed Yulia's
yearning pop songs  of hope and escapism,
coupling their Britpop influences with an intense,
layered sound that recalls My Bloody Valentine,
Chapterhouse or Mew.

Soon after moving to the UK, a childhood dream was realised when the
band were personally invited by Noel Gallagher to support him at an
acoustic gig in Moscow. The plaudits continued to come thick and fast, with
a breathtaking sunset performance at Latitude Festival leading to
Silversun Pickups requesting them as the main support on their UK tour in
September 2007.

deal with Xtra Mile Recordings soon followed, and Sonicflyer took to
the studio to record and produce the 'Sun In My Pocket' EP: a document
of their extraordinary journey so far, and the start of a new chapter
in which long-held aspirations seem set to become a reality.
