THE STORY SO FAR
2025
In January, Sonic Whip is awarded twice, during the annual music awards of Radio Wigwam in London, with the award for Best Live Act and for Best International Band. Already legendary is the performance that same month in the fan zone of football club Reading FC where during half-time their track ‘Spinning Around’ reverberates through the stadium. Furthermore that month, they play shows a.o. in London, Bournemouth, Swansea, Brighton and of course at the Purple Turtle in Reading which everytime is a sort of a homecoming whenever they visit the U.K.
On their return, Florian, Meryn and Kevin travel to the Ardennes where, at the famous GAM Studio, with English producer Michael Smith and engineer Marco Viscito, their new album is recorded in a fortnight.
In August, SONIC WHIP will perform at Manchester's Firevolt Festival alongside such luminaries as Tygers Of Pan Tang and the Quireboys....
2024
In January the band sets off to London to do a tour around London playing at legendary venues like Fiddlers Elbow, The Camden Club and The Bedford, run by ex- Iron Maiden member Tony Moore. The Bedford show is a part of the Annual Wigwam Awards.
That same year, Sonic Whip plays many festivals including the popular Zwarte Cross festival with great success.
‘Blues Skies’ from their EP ‘Spinning Around’ is played on national radiostation Radio Veronica by DJ Rob Stenders. In the summer, England is visited for the second time and the band plays ten shows in ten days. They are not yet back when they celebrate the release of the new EP with a sold-out show at Luxor Live the music venue in Arnhem.
In the autumn of 2024, the band tours the country during the Popronde, turning all venues upside down.
2023
The nomination of “Space” for best Song makes the band decide to travel to London for the awards show in January. It becomes a fine party there at the Bedford and finally “Space” finishes second in the election. But no-one is disappointed. A lot of contacts are made…..
On October 7, the first track of the forthcoming EP "Spinning Around" is released with an instore show at Record Shop Discords in their hometown Nijmegen.
2022
The band gets his current line-up :
Meryn Bevelander on guitars and vocals, Florian Bevelander on drums and vocals and Kevin Clerence on bass and vocals.
While supporting NAVARONE, twice this year and doing a lot of festivals SONIC WHIP gets incredible news. They are nominated Best Song of 2022 in the U.K. by London-based Radiostation Radio Wigwam. The song is “Space”.
2021
On July 2nd, SONIC WHIP releases their debutalbum “Triskelion” with a seated, due to the pandemic, but still sold-out show in the Doornroosje venue in Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
Especially for the show creative steel artist Maarten van Halderen creates a huge spinning “Triskelion” object which is also integrated on the album cover. Loads of great reviews and ‘Triskelion” is made “Album Of The Week” by Guitarist Magazine NL.
The songs on the album are distributed by mail to loads of radiostations around the world. Some tracks ending up on top of the charts of radiostations in the USA, Australia & England.
2020
During the summer they record their debut album “Triskelion” at the Sandlane Recording Facilities in Rijen (The Netherlands). Together with producer/engineer Jos Driessen they make a total blast of a record. Due to the pandemic some things have to be put on hold, still they are performing on the Pinguin Radio Showcases at ESNS 2020.
2019

2018
Florian & Meryn , sitting in their garden, enjoying the sun and the blue skies, talking and playing some guitar suddenly got the magnificent idea of starting a rockband. Not just a rock band but a R O C K BAND.
On that same afternoon the song “Insane” sees the light of day and minutes later they are coming up with the name for this new project….SONIC WHIP…….
