Music News - The Solomon Cole Band release their debut album 'Bruises'
21 October 2016 - 0 Comments
Waiheke Island based blues/rock/soul four-piece The Solomon Cole Band release their debut album Bruises on October 21st 2016.
Bruises is a collection of explosive and exalted blues
and dark, soaring soul-based songs landing somewhere between The Black Keys, Mark Lanegan and
even Led Zeppelin.
Case in point is lead single Ring
Your Bell - a driving blues track with an instantly engaging
electric guitar riff. Tongue-in-cheek lyrics set the scene as the soul
inflections of vocalist Sophia
Faalogo seal the deal, invoking the likes of The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion,
ZZ Top and Tina
Turner.
In the past 18 months since their inception, the SCB have supportedMartha Davis &
The Motels, opened New Zealand Fashion Week 2015, headlined 2
nights at Okere
Falls Beer Festival plus delivered many sold out nights at
venues on Waiheke Island.
The brainchild of guitarist/vocalist Solomon
Cole & bassist Lee
Catlin, The
Solomon Cole Band also includes soul vocalist Sophia Faalogo (The Reputations, Payola) & drummer Dione
Denize.
The album was mixed by veteran NZ engineer Nick Abbott (Goldenhorse, The
Datsuns, Crowded House) upon
his return from LA. Nick states, "Bruises is a monument to a scene, a
freedom and independence. Long may it continue."
Bruises is to be released via Aeroplane
Music Records and will be available for purchase from iTunes, Bandcamp and all good digital outlets.
Physical copies will be purchasable from Bandcamp and live shows.
The SCB will celebrate the album release with the following shows:
