The outfit, was founded by Brad Ketchen in 1999 and have been described as "a Tsunami of sound'', "Like Mercury Rev in a wind tunnel" and a review of the debut record 'phonic 50mg' stated it was "an atmospheric masterpeice". Hollowphonic's sound is the trademark heavy atmospheric reverb soaked guitar, extreme dynamics, watery sounding vocals with a hybrid guitar based sound fused with electronics. Fear, loss, medication and addiction are rampant in the subject matter throughout Brad's lyrics and musical writings.
Brad has enlisted a barrage of musicians to back him up live. Some of these included members of Crystal Castles, The Uncut and Old Soul and he frequently collaborates with Portland, Oregon, Film Director Rob Tyler who's film Painting work in the 'Color and Modulation' series is normally projected onto the live set.
Among other shows, Hollowphonic played a 4 song set for the Toronto Spacemen 3benefit gig for Spaceman 3/Spiritualized record sleeve designer and artist, Natty Brooker, December 4, 2010 and some scaled down solo shows, including playing material from his In Support of Living project, in and around Toronto. Brad has also been involved in remixing artists and mixing sound for feature films and most recently a 3D bit mapped projection documentary project on the Canadian composer 'Glenn Gould'.
The new self titled record is a culmination of a half a decade of work. Released in the Summer of 2013 on Chicago imprint 'Minor Sphere Records', the Sister label to 'Go Forth Records'.
