"Prepare to have your musical thirst quenched. Byron Bay's Band of Frequencies dabbles in the whole pallet of musical genres; Bluesy rock drips away into skull-melting lullabies that pitter-patter like rain into jazz-fusion grooves that inevitably wander off somewhere else altogether." -Travis Ferre
SURFING Magazine, US.
"The Band of Frequencies are a collective of musicians hailing from Byron Bay, Australia whose heavy grooving tapestry of rock, soul and ambient acoustics explore the inner-most reaches of the sonic realm."
Californian film maker Cyrus Sutton.

“Cyrus Sutton and I are S-T-O-K-E-D to be working with Band of Frequencies, their music crosses all genres in a very effective way. Sol Carroll’s guitar tones are the sh*t and their futuristic live audio / visiual shows tie it all together with the audience. Equally as important, the first time I met these guys it felt like we were old friends--these are the kind of guys I like to surf and drink pints with ! “Michael McFadin, co-founder Ubiquity Records
