Buzzard God recording artists The SOLEDADEEZ will be hosting a CD Release Party and Surfrider Benefit on Thursday June 8 at SOHO. The band plays an eclectic blend of folk grooves with funked up rhythms and engaging lyrics. The Soledadeez, Corey Linberg and Michael McHugh, have created their own
acoustic groove sound that mixes rock, reggae, jam, hip hop, island and dance music. Linberg, formerly of local favorite The Messengers, is a skilled singer and guitarist, and McHugh is a talented wordsmith and multi-instrumentalist. The two musicians have combined their creative energy to produce the new album "The Soledadeez Present Fattyboombaladee."

According to The Santa Barbara Independent, Soledadeez music "is lyrically enjoyable and chock-full of positive messages."

The CD release party will open with singer/songwriter Jess Goldman at 9:00. Her acoustic reggae folk stylings will be followed by the Soledadeez, who will be joined on-stage by a long list of talented local musicians including Rebecca Kleinman, Kevin Vogel, John Gill, Bryan "Smitty" Smyth, Jon Willis, Doug Jaffe, Paull Ruebin, as well as Jess Goldman.

The event will benefit the Santa Barbara Surfrider Foundation. Part of the evening's proceeds will be donated to the foundation and an informational area will be set-up with a donation station. Cover charge is $5. CDs will be available at a discounted price of $5. Doors open at 8:00.
