Sol Nation has created one of the most charismatic, high energy and infectious live performances, with a strong global conscience, fusing roots, rock, reggae, soul & funk!
INFECTIOUS rhythms, worldly lyrics and impassioned musicianship from Dili to Cairns, Lisbon to Rio, Sol Nation draws upon a wealth of international musical culture to bring you a melting pot of Reggae, Samba, Funk, Salsa, East Timorese folk and African music.
The band is the product of Melbourne's communal music scene - at its heart lies the reggae experience of Paulo Almeida (Dili Allstars), the rock charisma of Colin Badger (Painters and Dockers), and the fiery ardour of soul-mama, powerhouse Kattimoni. Joining in the fun is samba drummer extraordinaire Mark Grunden and Acez Tamba Zeca Mesquita with a tough percussion section, leading the way for the Queen of Bass Ann Metry and bringing it home with sweetheart Jeremy Bennett on the sweet keys.
Who could ask for more?
Well as well as top notch entertainment, you also have a awesome food and drink service before the show.
And...ITS FREE!
You're welcome!
