Based out of Wichita, Kansas, Soulicit is best described as straight-up hard-rock music. When you take a vast love and respect for classic rock music and mix it with the roughness and edge of modern hard rock music, you have quite the rock n’ roll recipe.
***
Take that rock music, inject it with some of the catchiest hooks and sprinkle in some killer production and you now have the recipe for commercial success. Which is exactly what Soulicit is. One listen and it’s clear, Soulicit is not your typical garage band. With a polished, radio ready rock sound, Soulicit is ready for the masses.
***
They combine their commercial rock sound with pure, raw & refined, musical talent. Giving a nod back to the old school days of face melting, guitar shredding leads and straight forward rhythms, their songs rely on strong vocal work and massive guitars that won’t let you go. Before you know it you too are hooked by their catchy chorus’s and stellar musicianship. When you take this package and roll it into a live show, it explodes to a whole new level.

A New Standard in Rock N’ Roll
Get ready WORLD, Soulicit is HERE...Last night I had the pleasure of hearing a band that gave me goosebumps...Yes I said goosebumps...As an old hippy and concert goer as a kid growing up I had the pleasure of seeing and hearing alot of bands and musicians in my time...But last night brought back the memories of the bands from the 60's and 70's that I grew up with...Driving lyrics...Clean precise rhythms...It doesnt get any better than that..The band members, Darick Parson’s vocals has a voice and tone you dont see to much anymore where you can actually understand what he is singing about...His vocals go out to hit your mind, body and soul...With command of the stage and audience Darick gives you a performance that you will talk about for a long time to come...Andrew Weaver bass player with the THUNDER of the gods in his corner gives you an earth shaking tone and performance like no other bassist I have heard in a long time...Dont get me wrong there are great bassists out there but last night was a dream for me to be right there when the thunder rolled in...Daniel Weaver makes playing lead guitar seem so easy...His rifs and string bending are blinding...Here is a young musician that takes his part of the band to levels that would make a mainstream concert and label sit up and take notice...When the good Lord gave Craig Beebe his assignment in life to be percussionists HE did good...REAL GOOD...Being the tempo and as I like to say the BLAST FURNACE of the band Craig could communicate with a deaf person and he or she would know what he was trying to say with his skins beating out the tempo and setting a course of rhythmic heartbeats...It just doesnt get any better than this...If you get the chance to see this band DO IT, you wont be disappointed...I sure wasnt...THESE GUYS ROCK...
