Album Notes

The flower child of Psychedelic Cuban Blues, SOL, was born in the magic city between the sun and the supernova. She sings Son Cubano fused with smoky midnight moan blues melodies. The Neo Hippie Rain Maker of Cuban decent from Miami, uses the cultural mix of her environment along with the influences of the Gritty Blues from the Dirty South, to evolve her music to what it is today. "Sol's music could easily rock the ties off music industry execs looking for a hit on commercial airwaves, while other songs could just as easily work their way around the more pensive college radio circuit."(Miami New Times) Channeling Billie Holiday, Celia Cruz, and Janis Joplin, she belts out her self-penned lyrics. She's been touring most of 2008 promoting her last album, Ten Unprofessionals. This year she is focusing on writing her next album, which she plans on releasing in early 2010. She's played at venues like, The Gusman Theatre and Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts (Miami), Conga Room (LA), Hothouse and Empty Bottle (Chicago), S.O.B's (NYC), Knitting Factory and Bowery Ballroom (NYC) and many festivals such as, Sunday on the Mile Jazz Festival, Suwannee River Music Festival, Chicago World Music Festival and the Calle Ocho Carnival. As an EMI publishing songwriter, her songs have appeared in Showtime’s the L Word, Discovery Channel and recording artist albums such as Noelia and Sound Side. She suggests to see her play live to get the whole grasp of what she does, and chances are if you are living somewhere in the world or in outerspace, she'll be there soon.
