Jason Briggs/The Sonitus Revolution

About Me

Jason Briggs is the founding member of The Sonitus Revolution. Formed in 2005, Jason recruited Chris Dimaio on Bass and Adam Clark on drums. With some lineup changes and scattered breaks over the next year, the band met their demise in December 2006. Since then, Jason Briggs became a member of Bionic Senses , a contributer to Buzzards Over Baghdad and Long Island Drone Orchestra , and lead guitarist in Grrrl Friend .

Upon leaving Grrrl Friend in January 2008, Briggs strives to record an album. On the forthcoming album, he plans to showcase his older work from both TSR and Grrrl Friend, and plans to record new songs. In April 2008, he joined Vision Through Sound as their touring bassist.
