SOLRiSE originates from the rising sun and the rising of the soul. Colombian, French and Spanish cultures gather in BarCeloNa and give birth to an original blend with roots in the ever uplifting reggae skank, a funk groove that makes u stomp your feet, rock guitar riffs and latin keyboards and chants. Through energy loaded shows and upbeat songs, the band drives their message of counciousness, positivity, concern for socially critical issues and hope for a better place.

We believe that nature is the gift to humans, and humans’ gift to nature is music. Music is our way to express our feelings, to communicate our suffering and hope. We sing to the muse within us all to transcend all racial barriers and prejudices. eXpRESsiOn is the vehicle for our beliefs and creation. So never stop eXpRESsing. Never stop cREaTing.

SOLRiSE are: ALEJO (guitar and vox), BETEL (drums), BYRON (bass and vox), NiCOX (keys and vox), VINCENT AKA CHAI (lead vox).

SOLRiSE has been produced by Gambeat (Radio Bemba, Manu Chao) and has collaborated with several artists, among them: Che Sudaka, Microguagua, Yacine, Drumanberoz, Superamazoo, Kumar, Muyayo Rif, Costo Rico…
