On Saturday Oct 2, the Sol Roots band with guest Gabe Stillman perform at the legendary JV's in Falls Church, Virginia. This special blues/soul/rock celebration will showcase world class musicians in a relaxed venue, that has been known for decades for showcasing some of the best national and regional musical talent.
Sol Roots is a powerful guitarist and soul soaked vocalist who regularly brings in an incredible roster of guests to work with his band, which adds excitement and diversity to each show.

Gabe Stillman is recognized as a rising star in the blues world, who always brings energetic, acrobatic, and fiery guitar performances. Gabe is a graduate from the prestigious Berklee College of Music, and has a sound remarkably rooted in the blues, while drawing from the deep well of all American roots music. Gabe Stillman recently signed with Vizztone Records and has put out an acclaimed new album, Say The Word, which was produced by Anson Funderbough. The Gabe Stillman Band has been touring steadily in support of this album, as well as Gabe being a guest feature on shows with friends such as Billy Price, The Nighthawks, and Sol Roots."
