Sol was first introduced to the blues at the young age of 11 when his father brought him to the home of Guitar Gabriel in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. As a teenager he traveled throughout the South with MMRF's founder Tim Duffy to help him with field recordings. He has become a skilled guitarist, pianist and bass player and is now diving head first into the recording industry
sol is apart of the Music Maker Relief Foundation:
Music Maker Relief Foundation's Mission
Music Maker Relief Foundation, Inc. is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping the true pioneers and forgotten heroes of Southern musical traditions gain recognition and meet their day-to-day needs. Today, many such musicians are living in extreme poverty and need food, shelter, medical care, and other assistance. Music Maker's aid and service programs improve the quality of recipients' lives. Our work affirms to these artists that we value the gifts of music and inspiration they have delivered to the world. Our mission is to give back to the roots of American music. Our criterion for recipients is they be rooted in a Southern musical tradition, be 55 years or older and have an annual income less than $18,000. Music Maker Relief Foundation, Inc. is a tax exempt, public charity under IRS code 501(c)3.

very soulful blues... amazing album
author: SP
very souldful blues w/ elements of early 70s soul. Down tempo & hiphop beats. A great old style/ new styles blend- Bebop Blues. This is an amazing album until song number 9 but then it gets good again! Len Comaratta
