25/06/07 - Solrun Updates have been slow of late. So appologies are due. Minifest was a success so well done to the whole Minifest Crew for a sterling job and to Furisode who won the battle on the night and went on to open the Manifest Event @ The Southampton Guildahall on the 9th of May. We've been sporadically playing local shows and getting ourselves out and about over the last few weeks - The last show with our good friends Brenda at The Hobbit in Southampton on June 1st was awesome and a good night was had by all. Thanks to everyone who came out and made it so.
As per the shows listing above Solrun will be out in Southampton again on July 6th at The Talking Heads with The Warm and in Portsmouth July 7th at The Havana Club. So come see us!
Furthermore, our close friends and label mates Humungous Douglas are on tour throughout July across the south coast of the UK and need your support! So if you live nearby come out and have a blast with them. Plus, Solrun will be joining them at The Tangerine Bar in Worthing on July 10th. Heartache Records on the Road!
We hope to see you all very soon!
Solrun

05/04/2007 - Good news! Voting has closed for the final slot on the bill at The Minifest.
Meaning the confirmed line-up for the night will be Our Cold City, Lost On Landing, Last Letter Read, Furisode, Humungous Douglas, Solrun and headliners Not Advised. Click on the bands links below and check em' out. It promises to be an awesome show.
Yes ladies and gentlemen this IS battle of the bands. However those clever bastrards have set up the voting in such a way as to not make it simple popularity contest as is typical of these kind of shows. (we like) The voting will be split 60% Judges and 40% audience on the night. WE need YOU to make this thing happen for us.
It's simple.
You turn up on the night.
You vote for us.
We open Manifest at The Guildhall.
Job done.
Check out the link below for more info in the event.
Ticks are £5. No excuses.

01/04/2007 - Solrun have been out of action for far too long now. Our Last show early last November with Amplifier at The Joiners saw the departure of bassist Rick Turner and since then progress for us had been slow. After auditioning several potential candidates to take his place, we decided that an additional member would only complicate things. Vocalist Kelvin Jenkins will now be providing both Vocals and Bass for Solrun.
Since then we have been in the studio working on the next release which should be out and about in the public domain by the end of the summer. Keep you're eyes peeled for updates.

07/05/2006 - Welcome to the Solrun Myspace. Formed in late 2002 under the name 'Seven Days at Knifepoint' Solrun picks up from where our sound left off and yet, we hope to come across a little deeper, a little more experimental and expressive.
Basically, we're just getting old, tired and pretentious now;)
We're always happy to talk so don't hesitate, leave a message, or mail us at [email protected].
