“Sol's playing has been described as “musical glue," holding together many grooves and personalities. He has backed up legendary artists like Taj Mahal and Kenny Wayne Shepherd, opened for Robert Randolph, Wood Brothers, and has played with more obscure artists who have had unique perspectives and sounds. Though it all, he has learned many valuable lessons and is still able to hold on to the one thing that ties us all spiritually to one another — music.”- Jeff Reid - The Beat Magazine
"a heavy groove! Sol tears out funk, blues, and rock, delivered with deep soul" - T. Duffy, President Music Maker
"Sol is an exceptional guitarist & a great musician/songwriter with an extraordinary ability to fit the perfect approach and composition."- Fred Cannon, a Senior VP at BMI
