The Band Solstice, formed in 2019 by childhood friends, has grown from a summer-solstice idea into a rising indie-rock force known for their energetic shows and evolving sound. Now students at The University of Tennessee, the group channels influences from Kings of Leon, Dawes, Mt. Joy, and Dr. Dog into a style all their own. Frontman Marty Gee delivers powerful, emotive vocals, anchored by the tight rhythm from drummer Grayson Strayder and bassist Maddox Frazier. Jacob Greene adds depth and lush keyboard textures, while Jackson Frazier’s expressive guitar work brings soaring riffs and melodic solos that define the band’s signature feel.
With their debut album slated for early 2026, The Band Solstice prepares to bring new music to new cities as they step confidently into their next chapter.
