DOM LEWIS and The Solution

"Go on get your DOM out"

About Me

Have supported Lucie Silvas, Mia Silvas, Dj Wrongtom (HARD-Fi), Lopez, Judie Tzuke and Greg Belson. Dom is studying composition at the Royal Academy of Music and was brought up on a diet of clasical music with both his parents having prestigous musical careers.
Still only 22 and although decidedly wet behind the ears, Lewis' music is profoundly mature, his classical training in composition and his driving examination of different genres makes his music appealling to everyone.
Inspired by musicians such as Ben Folds, Jimmy Hendrix, and Jeff Buckley to name a few Doms music combines tasteful and dynamic playing, with evocative well-chosen lyrics.
Dom is now playing with his band "The Solution" all of whom are studying at the Royal Academy of Music. "Standing on the edge of stardom", Doms new EP is a fusion of funk, intelligent pop and jazz set alight by the rock solid flare of Hamblet(drums) and Buxton(bass) iced by the punching horn section of Gavita, Lawrence and Tonkin. "Shes got a secret" is just a small taster of what is to come and the fusion of infectious melody and good time grooves leaves the listener with a permanent smile.
