In 2000 he met up with bassist / guitarist Sean Lacefield. They were both performing in separate groups that night. Brian introduced himself while waiting to go on stage. They hit it off right from the start. Sonneman stayed long after his band Thrown Electric was done playing to watch Sean’s band F-Line. Within a few months of that he and Sean Lacefield began writing and recording songs together. Lacefield had just been laying guitar tracks for 80’s famed metal band “Metal Church.” The two would become known as “Sonneman/Lacefield”
