Sol Haus and the Spokesmen

Northern soul drives Sol Haus and the Spokesmen. The Melbourne band favours lesser known songs from the 1950s and early 1960s, with a three part horn section supporting guitar, bass, drums and keys. Sol Haus fronts the group, which grew from the city's soul club scene. Hammond organ and piano add to the arrangements. The set stays upbeat, drawing on artists such as Etta James and Ray Charles while looking beyond their most familiar hits.
