The Black Tones
The Black Tones welcome audiences into their musical family every time they take the stage. Once you see them live, you’ve then become a part of their extended sonic kin. Founded by twins Eva and Cedric Walker, the Seattle-based rock ‘n’ roll band has grown from humble beginnings in their grandmother’s basement to receiving recognition from Guitar World, AfroPunk, KEXP, American Songwriter, Under the Radar and NPR, which said, ”The Black Tones are redefining Seattle music.”
Over the past handful of years, the rock group has shared stages with Weezer, Mavis Staples, Death Cab for Cutie, Tank and the Bangas, Fishbone and many more. The group has also worked closely with Pearl Jam’s Mike McCready on several projects, including a cover of U2’s “Pride (In the Name of Love).” And in 2019, The Black Tones released their debut LP, Cobain & Cornbread, which was engineered by the legendary Godfather of Grunge, Jack Endino.
Sol
Raised by the Seattle music scene, Sol began performing and creating music at the age of 12. His 2012 album, Yours Truly, debuted at #1 on the iTunes US hip-hop charts, leading to extensive touring and over a decade of album releases. Beyond music, Sol is deeply committed to community work, organizing benefit concerts and festivals that have supported local artists and provided disaster relief for Sol's homeland of Haiti both after the earthquake and Hurricane Matthew. A new Sol album will enter the world in Spring 2025, celebrated with a hometown show at the iconic music venue Neumos on April 5th.
