Sonder is a vibrant collective of artists based in Ayrshire, featuring Jodie Rae, Alexandra Shrinivas, Eilidh Grant, Patricia Crozier, and Donald Jessop. The band embarked on their musical journey together in January 2024, each member bringing years of individual experience to the group.

The name ‘Sonder’ embodies the belief that everyone has a unique story, a theme that deeply influences their songwriting. Their music is characterised by haunting vocals and cinematic instrumentals, drawing inspiration from iconic artists such as Alanis Morissette, Fleetwood Mac, Massive Attack, and Fiona Apple, resulting in a sound that is both distinct and emotionally resonant.

Though just entering the Scottish music scene, Sonder have spent the last year performing across the country, performing at events such as Knockengorroch, Solas, Fresh Ayr Folk Festival, Moniaive Folk Festival and YouthBeatz.
