With years of adventurous touring already behind them and a constant appetite for developing their compositions, Solana’s rich sonic tapestry is anchored by a deep respect for traditions rooted in all the corners of Europe. Siblings Tamsin and Rowan Elliott bring dexterous melodies on flutes, whistles, accordion and violin to meet JP Wolfgang’s Spanish guitar, Henry Edmonds’ bass, and inventive percussion and vocals from Elio Arauz de Marcos. The result is an intoxicating cocktail of rhythm, an infusion of dance and melody that is impossible to resist.

Five distinct rivers merge into one irrepressible tide, holding tight to traces of flamenco, Arabic rhythms, jazz blueprints, and fragments of folk and klezmer melodies. Complex rhythms pulse and swell beneath unpredictable harmonies, taking their music towards something new and bold beyond classic folk conventions. Sometimes playful and often poignant, audiences in concert halls and festival stages alike are invited to dive in with engaged ears and listening limbs, to enjoy this feast for the senses, this folkloric fusion from four corners of the continent and beyond.
