A Sonic Production

1968

This Spartanburg, South Carolina band, which covered Motown, R&B and some British Invasion rock, was fronted by Doug Gray (1948- ) and included bassist Tommy Caldwell (1949 -1980), both later members of The Marshall Tucker Band formed in 1971.

Sonic Records (still active today) was formed in 1968 by three college students, Don Adrian Rice; Jim Linsay; and Doug Thurston at Wofford College in Spartanburg, South Carolina. These students were actively involved in music and had been putting on concerts using local bands in the Western North and South Carolina area.
The New Generation was the first group they put out on record.
