Neurosonic was founded in Vancouver, British Columbia in February, 2006 by vocalist/guitarist Jason Darr, who was the former lead singer of Calgary's Out of Your Mouth. In addition to Jason, Neurosonic also consists of guitarist Troy Healy, accompanying vocalist and bassist Jacen Ekstrom and Tama endorsed drummer Shane Smith from former bands SNFU, The Real Mckenzies and David Ogilvy's (Mixer/Producer of Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, and Mötley Crüe), Jakalope. Neurosonic released its first album, Drama Queen on January 30, 2007 on the Bodog Music label, although the album was released in September, 2006 in Canada.[1]

The Multi-Platform game, Scarface: The World Is Yours also features their song, 'So Many People'.

On April 28, 2007, Jason posted on Neurosonic's MySpace that they would be playing on the main stage at the 2007 Family Values Tour.[2]

According to the Neurosonic biography on Bodog Music's site,[3] Neurosonic is as "driven and unapologetic as its creator (Darr)." Neurosonic's musical style crosses many boundaries and while it is generally classified as alternative rock,[4] it is also classified as hard rock, also containing elements of traditional rock and pop.[3][5]
