Eddie Solis is a Los Angeles music industry professional, musician, and show promoter. He has worked in sales, marketing and artist promotion at labels such as Century Media, Priority Records,〔 Macey Lipman Marketing,〔 and SST Records, where he worked with Black Flag.〔 He is currently general manager at Southern Lord Records. Until 2010 he was booking manager of the Hollywood heavy rock venue The Relax Bar.〔 He is also the manager of Club My War, a facilitator of underground metal hardcore and avant-garde music in Hollywood proper.〔 In 2001 Solis founded the hardcore punk duo It's Casual, which has released three studio albums on CD/LP and played with bands such as Story of the Year, Mastodon,〔 High on Fire, Zeke, Fu Manchu, and Death by Stereo.〔 He was also a founding member of the hard rock band Revolution Mother with Mike Vallely in 2005.〔 ==Early life== Eddie Solis was born and raised in East Los Angeles County. As a child his father used to carry him around on his shoulders while listening to Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, and The Who, all bands which Solis has cited as influential on his later music.〔 Solis has stated he is the result of "basically growing up around a gang-infested area with lots of negativity." He turned to skateboarding as an escape, and his parents let him build a halfpipe in the backyard. Solis would "put Slayer on the radio superloud" and practice tricks with friends. When he was fifteen he started his first band, a Ramones cover group called Endless Vacation, which played shows in his parents' living room. They also performed shows for donations to repair the halfpipe.〔 He began renting skateboarding videos in 1987, and the soundtracks exposed him to bands such as Black Flag, Dinosaur Junior, Bl'ast!,〔 The Minutemen, and other bands on the SST Records label. He would write down the band names〔 and special order the records because local record stores didn't have them in stock.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eddie Solis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
