About Sol Whiteside

Highly experienced and qualified drummer with many years of gigging under my belt!

Drummer

London

I’ve been playing the drums for 20 years and have been a part of many bands and projects along the way. Music has always been a huge part of my life and I take great pride in my creativity. I play every genre from Pop, to Metal, to Reggae (and everything in between). Whatever you need, I’ll be happy to do it!

Sol Whiteside's Reviews

5 out of 5

Sol is a pleasure to work with both on and off the stage. He has great feel on the drums and always works hard to ensure the parts are perfect. This is true of parts he’s learned for live shows as well as parts he written for the purpose of recording.

5 out of 5

Fantastic feel, super easy to lock in with! Plays without ego but with plenty of personality and flare.
