- About Me
- SONSOFDAY is not your typical Christian band. The three-piece alternative rock group based out of Portland, Oregon, is unique, and their story reads more like a screenplay than a typical band bio. They immigrated from Ukraine to the United States in 1992 in pursuit of a better life and religious freedom, which Ukraine was only just beginning to experience after the fall of Communism.
The three Belonozhko brothers make up SONSOFDAY, the Red Hammer Records band now traveling the country to promote their debut album Fragile People, which is now in stores. The trio is comprised of Vlad, age 21, on vocals and guitar; Roman, age 24, on lead guitar; and Scott, age 17, on bass.
It's not just the group's family ties or foreign homeland that makes them unique, but rather the powerful story behind their faith. The brothers are the third generation of Christians in the Belonozhko family, a faith that began with their grandfather, who served as a prison guard in a Ukrainian concentration camp for Christians.
The Belonozhko brothers were born in Cherkasy, Ukraine, where their family worshiped Christ in the underground church. This was at a time before the collapse of the Soviet Union when Christianity was illegal. After the fall of Communism, it became easier for families to immigrate to the United States, and the Belonozhko family left for America, in pursuit of religious freedom and a better life.
Settling in Portland, the family became involved in starting a charismatic church for Russian-speaking people called the Christian Center in Spirit and in Truth. The Bible-based church was founded to serve as an alternative to the more legalistic Russian churches in that area.
The band was formed in 2005 by Roman, who only needed to look within his own home for the other elements of the band, as he had three brothers with the same talent and desire to reach young people for Christ through music. SONSOFDAY cites such musical influences as U2, Lifehouse and even Johnny Cash, of which Vlad explains, “I watched the movie 'Walk The Line' and I was so impressed with Johnny and all he had overcome. I enjoy his music, but his personal story and his testimony for Christ really inspired me.”
After a few years of writing songs, practicing and playing live, SONSOFDAY caught the attention of Darren Bowls at Red Hammer Records. In 2007, and with Bowls in the producer's chair, SONSOFDAY recorded their first full-length CD for Red Hammer Records titled Fragile People, which includes the singles "Reconcile" and "This Place," for which the music video has received extensive airplay on numerous Christian television networks.
When asked the question of what impressed him about SONSOFDAY, Bowls stated, "Obviously, I liked their sound. Their sound is very unique and identifiable. The other aspect of the band that impressed me was their resourcefulness and work ethic. This stems from their Russian heritage where nothing comes easy and everything is hard to find or acquire, but can be if you are clever enough!"
SONSOFDAY has a very different and real-world perspective of Christianity that is very intriguing. In America there is no sacrifice or cost for our Christian faith. My hope is that because of SONSOFDAY's family heritage and unique perspective of the Christian faith, the Gospel can be told through their story in a way that can not be ignored."
SONSOFDAY is just beginning a long journey down a road that will have its ups and downs. But they are commited to the long drives, lonely times away from friends and family, and financial shortfalls. "I guess that is what they call paying your dues," says Roman. " Ministry is what it is all about, and all that really matters!"
