Sol Rising crafts alchemical musical journeys one ecstatic beat at a time. His original soundscapes evoke feelings of bliss throughout an eclectic mix of hip-hop, funk, soul, reggae, and electronic dance beats.

Born in Vancouver BC, Brandon began meditating at age four with a walking mantra technique. His mother took him to visit numerous spiritual teachers, who inspired him on the spiritual path he walks today. As a teenager, he became a hip hop fanatic.
His rooted interest in hip hop led him to learning the art of scratching — using turntables as musical instruments. Sol Rising soon became one of America’s top scratch DJs, winning second place at the DMC, the world’s most prestigious DJ competition.

After graduating in the top 5% of his accounting class at University of Iowa, he realized accounting was not his path. A journey to India illuminated his true calling — to light up people’s awareness of their true nature through music. This lead him to study audio engineering and production at Pyramind Studios in San Francisco and produce his first album, "I AM Soul."

Now a successful Producer/DJ, Sol Rising plays major events across the West Coast, including Burning Man, Symbiosis and Lightning in a Bottle. He has opened for major acts such as Beats Antique, and produced official remixes for artists including Jai Uttal, Mochipet, David Starfire, Delhi 2 Dublin, Kirtaniyas, and more. With a fervent following in the Ecstatic Dance scene, he has headlined Ecstatic Dance Retreat Hawaii, and is a fixture at Ecstatic Dances across the country. Sol Rising has been featured in major media outlets including the Washington Post, and his music has been enjoyed by over one million viewers in a viral YouTube video.

It is only fitting that alissa.jo planted her roots in the city of Chicago, the birthplace of house music. To her the genre epitomizes the essence of feeling—DJs guide each fan through their own unique experiences with the power of sound.

Borrowing from a broad selection of styles scored alissa.jo late-night gigs at The MID & Spybar in Chicago, Sound Night Club in Los Angeles, and Space in Miami. It also slotted her as a house DJ with an approachable aesthetic and opened doors for her to play Internationally in Thailand, Mexico, and Jamaica.

One of alissa.jo’s most memorable events to date was playing at Chicago's Mamby Beach Festival in 2015 where she used electronic music to guide yogis through a breathtaking spiritual practice. The experience inspired alissa.jo to create her own company Deep House Yoga. Starting with monthly residencies in Ann Arbor, and Detroit, Michigan, the brand quickly expanded West to Spy Bar in Chicago and Sound Nightclub in Hollywood, CA.

Deep House Yoga was a headlining yoga presenter at Oregon Eclipse Festival produced by Symbiosis, and also presented at the magical Lighting in a Bottle Festival in California.
