SOLEDAD BROTHERS

Additional information

Toledo Ohio's Soledad Brothers are back from the near dead to spread their one-of-a-kind Rust Belt R&B Revolutionary Gospel. 

These will be their first time setting footprints on European soil together as a band in 20 years. 

Soledad have been long associated with the early 2000's Detroit garage rock revival along with cohorts The White Stripes, The Detroit Cobras, and The Dirtbombs. 

Cut from the same fiery roots, time and local as those groups but very much hewing their own path, the Soledads were louder and looser. 

They were influenced by John Lee Hooker, The Gun Club, Hound Dog Taylor, Sister Rosetta Thorpe as well as frequencies more distant such The Fall and free jazz pioneers such as Albert Ayler. 

Sonically this all came together in a sound all their own with political insight and edges not explored by contemporaries. 

Their much-heralded firebrand live shows have diminished not one iota in the intervening years, in fact the anger burns brighter and the stage slop more noisy.
