NEW ARTIST | sura sol | single - dance & giggle | album - i will be dead

Welcome to Mayway Records, sura sol!

single ‘dance & giggle’ + album ‘i will be dead’

sura sol (née Rachel Solomon) is a truly unclassifiable artist. A proud Brussels local at heart, with mixed origins from four continents running through their veins, they gleefully blur genres. Under their fingers and voice, lullabies become incantations, poems turn to rap, and blues flirts with opera. with an underlying freak folk touch and wandering jew-ish harmonies, sura’s music slips into your ears, tickling, caressing, shaking, piercing. 

After having co-founded, released an ep and two albums, and toured for years all over europe and beyond with the band Las Lloronas, sura - ‘Artist in Residence’ at Botanique, Brussels since this year - is now free birding on a yet more intimate and daring musical career. After their debut solo album ‘roar’ in 2022, and the experimental EP ‘breaking the silence’ in 2024, they released ‘i will be dead’, their second full fleshed album, in the spring of 2026. This new album sweeps us into a world that is gentle and jarring at the same time, through lyrics both intimate and political, poetic and sharp, it leaks a contagious hope and aliveness beyond and in response to the wars, violences and fascisms currently at stake.

sura sol: a sonic UFO, raw and authentic, an emotional tour de force brimming with humble, and overflowing generosity. Shortly after the release of ‘i will be dead’, this remarkable album caught our attention, and not long afterwards, our path crossed with sura’s. During our very first coffee together, a crazy little plan was hatched, and the idea emerged to re-release the album together. After all, extraordinary albums deserve extraordinary plans!

‘i will be dead’ is out now on Mayway Records. Enjoy!
