Solomon Fox

Heavenly harmonies from Solomon Fox at Ideal Bar

Following his critically acclaimed debut album Sweettooh from last year, Solomon Fox is now ready to bring his soulful songs out to the whole world.

On November 19, the American songwriter hits the Ideal Bar. Through the thirteen songs on Sweettooth, the listener is let into a wondrous musical universe that blends genres such as soul, punk and indie-psych into an ear-catching and well-produced pop universe.

Solomon Fox lyrically takes the listener on a trip down to the bottom of existence, where themes of heartbreak, healing, temptation, and self-discovery are affectionately and poetically rendered end-faced. He has recorded almost every instrument himself over a five-year period and, with the release, sends affectionate and appreciative nods to names such as D'Angelo, Bon Iver, Erykah Bady, Jill Scott and Radiohead.

The Deubtal album abounds with delicate vocal harmonies, and beautiful lyrical stanzas dovetail across a well-sounding soundscape.

In 2019, Solomon Fox broke through as a producer, working with songwriters Joshuah Campbell and Cynthia Erivo to create the gospel-inspired anthem “Stand Up” for the film Harriet, which later received Grammy, Oscar and Golden Globe nominations for Best Original Song.
