Compelling vocals and a modern soulful sound, accompanied by thick layers of instrumentation (and supported by JAYA Lawrence Javier, Felix Ayodele and Mike Hall), Solomon’s collaboration refreshes the vibe and soul-esque of a Curtis Mayfield, Funkadelic and/or Gil Scot Heron. Crafting a tightly produced, modern soul sound appealing to indie, (neo) soul, hip- hop and pop fans alike. To put it another way, Solomon takes you to a time when the songwriting, the sound, and the SOUL mattered. “I’m a 70’s baby, so my musical influences fit that time period – one where live instruments met the DJ...elements that are felt throughout the music I have been fortunate to create. My perspective is cross-cultural, and I think this is what allows me to connect with music lovers worldwide.” “I’d rather let the work speak for itself…it’s all about content – what’s inside the cup, because that is what determines its shelf life in people’s hearts and minds. The work…the art…has become important again. It’s getting back to the Soul, to great music that is fresh, inspiring, and accessible.” [show less]
