Grab a cocktail and enjoy live music on the patio of the SHOW Bar at the Sheridan Opera House on Thursday, June 29 from 7-9 p.m. with Sol Chase.
This event is free and open to the public.
Sol Chase was born into a tribe of hippies and musicians and learned to play folk songs in the fields and forests of Europe during early years on the road with his parents. The family band would venture into towns for regular busking sets, and street performing became Sol’s primary medium of musical expression for many years. After moving to Colorado, Sol fell deeply in love with the bluegrass tradition of campfire jams and festivals that rings through the Rocky Mountains.
A mandolinist and songwriter from a young age, Sol developed his musical style with mentors across many genres and walks of life, from New England old time players to jazz guitarists. His longest stint of musical development came from seven years spent in the “Live Music Capital of the World”, Austin, Texas. He founded and led several bands during his time there, refining a sound that mixes traditional Americana with psychedelic ‘jamgrass’.
Lifted to new heights by the collaborative and rich scene, Sol recorded his first solo project in 2022. Recorded in Austin with a cohort of the city’s best acoustic players and engineered by Charles Godfrey (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Sublime, Whiskey Myers), “The Eclectic Life of an Only Child” is a scrapbook of musical memories, truths, and fictions gathered through a lifetime of playing.
Sol has recorded with Third Eye Blind, shared the stage with The California Honeydrops, and opened for Shinyribs and The Sweet Lillies, among many others. Since leaving Austin in 2022, Sol and his partner Evergreen have traveled across continents in search of new heights and new pals to make and share music with.
