Sol Roots

A look ahead: Friday May 24 Popa Chubby and Sol Roots at The Hamilton Live Washington, DC "Popa Chubby has been hard rocking the blues in his fierce and soulful way for more than 25 years. Over the course of a career that dates back to 1994, he has been a force of to be reckoned with on the guitar, and his tempestuous, soulful playing has never been more powerful. An imposing figure with a shaven head, tattooed arms, a goatee and a performance style he describes as “the Stooges meets Buddy Guy, Motörhead meets Muddy Waters, and Jimi Hendrix meets Robert Johnson ,” Popa Chubby is an endearing character who is one of the genre’s most popular figures" PopaChubby.com "Sol Roots brings a soulful blend of rock and blues, with a natural stage presence" - JamBase The Sol Roots band performs a mix of New Orleans funk, raw blues, energetic rock, deep grooves, and southern soul.
