In March of 2013, Solman hosted a small event in his backyard as a way to share his music with others. Quite spontaneously it became a magical night: friends and family helped to decorate the small gazebo in the yard with fabrics and lights, the audience brought blankets and beach chairs and sat under the trees and stars, and with limited amplification the music had a raw organic sound, perfect for Solman's rootsy acoustic songs. Friends and family were invited and over 50 people came.
