Solex

In one word Solomon’s music can be described as CAUS ~ “Classified As Universal Sound.“ Solomon’s music resonates cross-culturally and has no boundaries. The language of his music is universal. However, he makes no boasts for His musical talent. A native of Bridgeport, Connecticut, Solomon grew up as a PK (Preacher’s Kid) and was exposed to the ministry of music early in his childhood. He was the oldest of three siblings and began playing the bass guitar at age 15 with his family’s gospel quartet, The Edmond Family. It was his passion for playing the keyboard which would ultimately lead him to a career as a minister of music. Solo, as he is passionately known, has also produced and written music for several artists such as Ametria, FAVA, Williams Chapel Mass Choir, EnTouch, among others. Solomon was also gifted to draw and design.

In 1977, he moved to Atlanta, Georgia to attend the Atlanta College of Arts to pursue a degree in graphic design. As a result of his passion for the arts and his desire to make his dream of owning his own graphic design business a realty, Solex Enterprises was birthed in 2003. In April, 2007, Solomon made his debut to the music industry with his release of Together Again, a soulful compilation of jazz, rooted in gospel with a mild mix of Latin and R&B beats. The CD is a tribute to his first cousin, Jonathan Dubose. They grew up together in Bridgeport. Solomon would go to the basement in Jonathan’s house and play bass while Jonathan played lead. After many years of separation, the two have come Together Again on this project. Jonathan is one of the baddest guitarist in the land.
