It's Mike Vitale on bass, Mike Mink on keyboard, Tom Webb on drums, Sara Kat on vocals and what's-his-name

Beanies Bar & Grill in Mount Joy on Saturday, Jan. 15th; and Mick's All American Pub in Mount Joy on Friday, Jan.

The band - Wayne on guitar, Mike Vitale on bass, Mike Mink on keys, Sara Kat on vocals and Tom Webb on
drums - will be headed up to Brooklyn not once, not twice but three times in the coming months to play at the Sidecar, 560
5th Ave., on March 26th, July 1st and July 2nd. The band debuted last Friday at Chick's Tavern
in Hummelstown, and, according to Wayne, the "show went great." Next local performance: Saturday, Jan. 22nd, at
The Back Page in Leola. Leola to Brooklyn. Now that's a tour. Come warmer
weather, The Sonic Tonic also will be playing The Naylor Winery, Stewartstown, on July 15th and August 19th. Music starts
at 8 p.m. Wine starts even sooner. What more could you ask for?"

Who: The
most recent brainchild of guitar guru Wayne Thompson (Plan B) consisting of four veteran badasses who still know how
to groove like nobody's business, plus their lovely singing Kat.
What You'll Get: You'll get
some drinks. Then you'll get groovy. You'll get Ray Charles, Jimi Hendrix and the Stones like you've never
gotten them before. Not to mention Eric Clapton, Steely Dan, Joe Jackson, Pink Floyd the Allman Brothers and some
Sonic Tonic creations to round out the sound.
