Well guys it’s been a while and we have hit a few recent snags, but Soliss are coming back at you this year!! We’ve got some new songs, and two new EP’s. We have spent the last few weeks recording something a little bit different, for your ears to listen to. In a few weeks we will have the brand new Soliss ‘Acoustic’ EP ready, (currently in the mixdown stage) and also a new, ‘balls to the wall’ rock EP. These will be on sale at future gigs – and we will of course make these available on the website for you to listen to once they are completed .
After a successful 2009, we have found ourselves musically and are currently going through a whole ‘rebranding’ phase - and this will be reflected by our Official website, and also our MySpace page very shortly.
We hope that your support for Soliss will continue throughout 2010, and we look forward to seeing you at future gigs.

Hello all,
Happy new year! It's been a little while since our last post but we're still very much in the game and have just been taking a little time out to record an acoustic EP before getting back to the Soliss you all know and (hopefully) love.
Creativity has been at unprecedented levels in the recent weeks so plenty of new material to come your way soon. To promote our acoustic EP, we're kicking off the year with a handful of acoustic gigs so please check out our gig listing page. The EP will also be available for sale at the gigs in the coming months.
It's been great fun learning how to play different instruments that we're not used to i.e. cello and harmonica, and collaborating with Dale Stanley on the keyboard. We're recording acoustic versions of Weakness and some new songs you may have heard at recent gigs, Memphis, Save Me and Ain't No Song. We hope you like them as much as we've enjoyed recording them.
We'll see you soon. soliss xxxxx
P.s. Thanks to all those who have supported us in 2009 and for getting us to number 8 in European Klassik Rock Radio's Top 100 of 2009 with Sanctuary. Check out the station at www.ekr.net.
After months of messing around in the studio (in the best possible way) Soliss are back on the road doing what they do best - Sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll, all in equal measure at a venue near you. You supply the first two, we'll sort out the rest.
Nothing pleases us more than taking to a stage and ripping it up (in the best possible way). Next show (and it will be a show!) is in London at The Underbelly. Email soliss@hotmail.co.uk for tickets.
Before we can play though, there are some important questions that need answering:
1. Has Paul forgotten the art of eating as he's looking rather lean and sexy nowadays (I would say emaciated but I think there's some way to go yet)!?
2. When will Mike give his poor grandad back his hat (not the one in photo above, pictures to follow shortly)? He's been missing it dearly.
3. Whose blood is splattered over two of Adam's guitars? I know which band's I wish it was.
4. Does Rudge actually possess the necessary muscles in his face to smile?
5. How big is Selleck?!?!?!?!?! Answers on a postcard, or photos will do if you can find an adequate lens.
Even if you cannot answer any of these, please email us at soliss@hotmail.co.uk for a chat.
On an unrelated note, if anyone is after any guitars, amps, effects etc, let us know as Adam has a warehouse full that he needs to shift to fund his other habit (in the best possible way).
See you soon.

Hello all,
Last weekend saw soliss play three gigs over two days, all of which were outside and all of which were great fun. We met some interesting people and saw some interesting bands such as Greenleaf 56 (with new singer), The Dirty Fairies, and Voodoo Vegas, and of course the gentleman who sold us the rather fetching trilbies, one of which Adam is modelling below.
Next week we are playing at Chinnerys so please come down to show your support and to listen to a band who've been rejuvenated through intensive songwriting! Our new songs (which consist of an electric blues stomper, a no-nonsense 3-chord rocker, a bouncy and infectious sing-along, and an honest emotive ballad), have given us a more rounded, yet still powerful sound. Your old favourites will still be there along with the new songs; your future favourites.
The four songs mentioned above have all been recorded and are in the process of being mixed. They should be ready in the very near future.
There's still plenty going on with soliss and a whole fresh batch of gigs are being booked at the moment so watch this space to find out our nearest venue to you.
See you all soon.

Friday Morning I shall be chatting live to the guys at the legendary Radio Caroline station. Check it out just after 11am at www.radiocaroline.co.uk.
I'll be giving a brief account on our most recent recordings plus there shall be an exclusive Radio Caroline premiere of our new track "Goodbye Goodtimes" available to download by signing up to our mailing list at www.soliss.co.uk. I shall also look back at our hugely succesful set at this years Cambridge Rock Festival.
New songs are all tracked, bar some vocals. We're currently on the look out for a cheap string quartet and an expensive kazoo soloist for one of the songs so get in touch if you can help. 
Get in quick if you want a shout out!!!
