The Empty Pockets Biography
Light flickers in even the darkest of spaces and smallest cracks. Similarly, The Empty Pockets
ignite a bright flame of their own by harnessing a joyful friction between Americana, folk, and
rock ‘n’ roll spiked with roots soul. The Chicago quartet—Josh Solomon [guitar, vocals], Erika
Brett [keyboards, vocals], Nate Bellon [bass, vocals], and Adam Balasco [drums]—lean on an
unspoken, yet airtight musical dialogue honed by countless miles on the road, performances
alongside the likes of Kenny Loggins, a procession of fan favorite releases (including a #1 debut),
and a wealth of memories together.
However, the musicians shine brighter than ever on their 2023 independent full-length LP,
Gotta Find The Moon.
“Gotta Find The Moon means, ‘There’s no time, but today’,” explains Josh. “We can’t wait for
the daylight in the morning. We have to find the light now in the darkness. The world is so
messed up. We don’t have the luxury of waiting for someone else to fix it; we all have to do our
little part.”
