Strength & Pain

This song was a blast to create! The entire idea came about from a simple conversation regarding daily observations and seeing the decline of western civilization. Not to mention the lack of any sort of intelligent dialogue that seems to escape most people these days. The idea for the chorus was taken from something I observed as I was downtown one day, there was a gentleman wondering, mindlessly muttering BANANANA
Not a thought in his head!! Lets get Stupid

Idiot Soup

Tick Tock/Family Tree

Building an Ocean:

I’m Building an Ocean 
in the corner of your eyes. 

The Forest is under water now, 
as we idly slip on by. 
The rose’s new host is Divine. 
Confined by 
your hindsight,
does not mean anything 
if you cannot look inside. 
We’ve already swallowed the hook 
that you used to hang your prom dress on, 
and I’m wondering, 
what took you so long 
to reel us all the way in?
Intrinsic value of what you can pull out, 
in regards to what you’re willing to give.

Is that what this whole life’s about?
  
Directionless progression:
this dexterous projectionist.
Un-aimed apples fall so much faster, 
with daft understanding. 
Branded a wounded soldier, stranded, 
land locked, and empty handed. 
These candid distorted images remain 
locked within these rusty crooked picture frames. 
Because anyone can play these shameless games, 
we’ve got twenty-one guns, but no names. 
Too many open casket masses have passed by virgin eyes.
The cannon blast’s “crack” masks the shrill sound of urgent cries. 
The Virgin dies,
diagnosis: suicide, 
and the verdict lies 
within a pair of dice.
Oh Christ, 
this Paradise is sinking under shrinking ice…
And there’s a doomsday eviction notice nailed to my chest,
it says, “You have six days to vacate and the seventh to rest.” 
I’m feeling pressed for time, 
trying to press rewind, 
and address the situation from a fresh state of mind. 
Like back before the plague of lying 
infected our kind 
and made us all more susceptible to step out of line. 
All these signs shift swiftly.
The situation’s sticky, 
but I don’t believe in pity, 
so don’t let me drown quickly. 
Please.

Don’t let me drown so quickly.
Please.

Deluxe EP

Dexter (feat. Nick Gerlach)

Sol Seed brings a distinct sound combining the best elements of Reggae, Rock, Hip Hop and Psychedelic Jam to form a positive musical fusion that is uniquely their own. With conscious, thought-provoking lyrics, infectious reggae-laden grooves and high-energy, impressive live performances, Sol Seed creates an unforgettable live-music experience for people of all ages to enjoy.
Since transplanting to Eugene from Southern Oregon three years ago, Sol Seed has swiftly gained powerful momentum in the NorthWest music scene, creating a diverse and loyal fan base all over Oregon, Hawaii, Washington, Montana and California. They have been awarded Eugene WOW Hall Awards "Best New Act" 2011 and "Favorite Local Band" 2012 and 2013, in addition to "Eugene's Best Band" two years running by Eugene Weekly readers, and recently won the prestigious title "Next Big Thing", another Eugene Weekly award.
Dominating the NW summer festival circuit including Oregon Country Fair, North West World Reggae Festival, Kaleidoscope, Jefferson State Hemp Expo and more, Sol Seed has also shared the stage with national acts such as Ziggy Marley, Slightly Stoopid, The Green, Karl Denson, Pepper, The Expendables, Pacific Dub, Nappy Roots, Heavyweight Dub Champion and many more. 
After a number of small EP releases, the group released their first full-length album "Grown Deep" in September 2012, which immediately gained air-time on a number of radio stations all over the West Coast as well as the Hawaiian islands. 
After a very successful 2013 Kickstarter campaign to fund their next album release, "Family Tree", Sol Seed is in the studio with the full-lungth studio album slated for a Spring of 2014 release. 

This Oregon based band got their start in early 2010 when songwriters Michael Lennon and Michael Sorensen joined hands with fellow friend and musician Benny Pezzano through a Southern Oregon open mic. An undeniable synergy was all but tangible as their creative forces coalesced, and they immediately began to grow a diverse collection of original music. They soon joined with Native American Award winning guitarist, Kenny Sequoia Lewis, and in October 2010, transplanted to Eugene to pursue life and music, where soon after they linked up with MC, Didgeridoo player and percussionist Sky Guasco. With 5 members, each member boasting very different influences and skill sets, Sol Seeds depth and volume of sound increased exponentially.
With day-jobs being an ancient memory, the close-knit members of Sol Seed have fully embraced the band that has created much more- A movement, a lifestyle.  
With an infectious enthusiasm for life and an unequivocal knack to communicate its beauty, the group shares their message of perspectivism and unconditional love through uplifting music rooted in the soul. Sol Seed has certainly dug their roots. Coming to a city near you!
