WARNING: HEAVY TIMBER

Two Brothers, Two Others, and a Samurai.
An unexpected Rock/Soul wildfire from the woods of the Pacific NW... Volifonix is a funk-fried rock band that originated in unlikely Oakland, Oregon with brothers guitarist/vocalist Trevor and drummer/vocalist Blake Forbess. Two bros in voice form an alliance with Elijah Medina after hearing him play bass at rural Sutherlin High School... and the band of three promptly moves to free-art epicenter Eugene, Oregon where they meld styles with University of Oregon student and fellow sonic spelunker, lead guitarist Joe McClain. Winter of 2008… VFX motates to Beverly Beach, Oregon and fuses with Tomo Thesamurai and his saxophone tracks, hailing from Tokyo, Japan. Result: artistic freedom with no bounds and pure muso-theoretical kung fu served up with a muscley groove. VFX elevates style to the highest always within the spirit of well-crafted songmanship and the all-important jam. Reckless yet focused... crazy yet smooth. Volifonix is the true sage of its form with an O R I G I N A L hair-on-fire approach to the hot/rock/funk genre.

It’s no secret that Eugene Oregon is a hotbed of unique musical talent and Eugene Weekly calls VOLIFONIX the “Best Rock Band of 2008.”

VOLIFONIX, sponsored by Ninkasi Brewing, has returned to their home state of Oregon from their Fresh Clippings Tour showcasing their full length CD “Oregonisms” – a two-month, forty-three date, six state voyage through the Pacific Northwest that culminated with their performance at Bumbershoot 2009 in Seattle on September 6th.

OREGONISMS WINS EUGENE WEEKLY'S "BEST ALBUM OF 2009!"

Volifonix, sponsored by Ninkasi Brewing, débuted their freshman effort “Oregonisms” in March 2009, which is available now on topsecret records, itunes, CD Baby and regular online retailers. "Oregonisms" is available now on topsecret records, itunes, CD Baby and regular online retailers.
