deSoL & Entrain at Blue Ocean Music Hall

About deSoL
deSoL is a multi cultural brotherhood from Asbury Park, NJ whose music mixes rock hooks with fiery Latin rhythms sung in English, Spanish & “Spanglish.”

The result is a musical stew where the individual styles of the six musicians combine to create a sound that keeps audiences on their feet.

deSoL’s infectious and relatable live show is a physical and spiritual experience.  

Formed in the early 2000s, they spent 10 years honing their live show in front of audiences across the US. Then, on the strength of two AA hit singles “Karma” and Sing It All Night” they became a fixture on the festival circuit and scored support slots for several bands including Los Lonely Boys, The Legendary Wailers, Widespread Panic and REM. After a a break to focus on family, the pandemic hit. The band recently reunited to write and record a crop of new songs and perform again in select east coast venues. 

Their music and message has remained upbeat and positive and appeals to listeners of all ages and backgrounds.

deSoL: of the sun, for the people…

About Entrain
Epic in sound and kaleidoscopic in vision, the eclectic Martha’s Vineyard-based six piece Entrain has been thrilling critics and fans alike since its inception. Formed and led by drummer Tom Major in 1993 while on hiatus from touring with rock legend Bo Diddley, Entrain has been blessed with a list of top tier musicians over the years. Tom takes the stage with lead singer/guitar wiz Brian Alex. Often joining them is bassist M’Talewa, saxophonist/percussionist Hilary Noble, saxophonist/accordion Klem Klemik, trombone/keys Lennie Peterson, and percussionist Eggiest Castrillo. Their collective resume includes stints with such diverse players as Bo Diddley, Carly Simon, Chuck Berry, Southside Johnny, James Mongomery, Gary Burton, and Blood, Sweat, and Tears.

Entrain has recorded eight albums, available on Dolphin Safe Records, all of which have been praised for their ability to shift effortlessly between musical styles – from rock, blues, calypso and ska, to zydeco, jazz and funk – often within the same song.

“The whole Entrain concept is based on the drums and infectious rhythms. Once we’ve got that…. anything goes, everything goes,” explains Major. “The most important thing that we try to do with our music is bring everybody together in the spirit of peace, love, fun and a ton of drums!”

Entrain’s latest record “Reason To Feel Good” has enjoyed heavy rotation in such trendsetter markets as Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, New England, Upstate New York, Aspen, Santa Fe, Houston, Cincinnati, and Nashville, and is climbing important industry trade charts like those in CMJ, Album Network, FMQB, and The Gavin Report.

The first single from “Reason To Feel Good”, titled “Lucky Just to Be Alive,” having only been given to a few stations late in November 2011, was number 2 in WMVY’s top 25 songs for 2011. Combining top notch musicians with great songs, and infused with some passionate and conscious lyrics, this CD is undoubtedly the best work from the production team of Major/Alex.
