Wonder (2014) - LP
Proper rock and roll that's easy on the ears, and a great way to get to know Phonebooth's style. Definitely check out track 2, Red Flowers, a fun mix of classic and melodic rock.
Listen to it: Easier to buy this one, just 9 bucks!
Prank (2015) - EP
This album, while shorter than the others at 5 songs, is absolutely beautiful. There are some wonderful messages in this one as well, starting off with "Flowers on the Waves," a song about the Sewol ferry disaster of 2014, a touching song with a powerful melody.
Listen to it: You can preview it on iTunes and watch videos on YouTube, but rather support the band with 5 bucks and buy this treasure! 😀
