Sole to Rock The Knitting Factory This Friday

Sole pulls confidently on his hat while the Skyrider Band form a protective barrier

Sole is a badass, a rapper, a visionary, and this Friday he will be the dopest show to check out in town. Sole is often best known for his solo work with Anticon, and did a killer interview with us back in July, but will be killing it with his new music-homies the Skyrider Band. So like they recorded this self-titled album, and its smokin-good.

Also playing that night is another Anticon'er, Telephone Jim Jesus. His weird outerspace styles are a perfect fit for Sole and the Skyrider Band. It's like just the right Italian wine with your chicken marsala.... sorta.

Check out Sole and the Skyrider Band @ The Knitting Factory Friday 8:30pm
