Sonobeat Recording Company (which included the Sonobeat Records label and BMI-affiliated Sonosong Music Company) was formed at the beginning of 1967 in Austin, Texas, by Bill Josey Sr. and Bill Josey Jr. Sonobeat is considered by many to be an integral seed of the Austin music scene. From 1967 to 1976, the small Central Texas label's prodigious output introduced Johnny Winter, Eric Johnson, Rusty Wier, and dozens of luminary Texas musicians to the world. Sonobeat.com offers an objective history and anecdotes of Sonobeat and the artists who helped create and shape the Austin music scene. |
