Forest City & Friends Continue to Innovate with ‘Sol’
Forest City & Friends, a Main-based rock and roll group known for their funky/psychedelic stylings, released their newest EP, ‘Sol.’

Forest City & Friends, a Maine-based rock and roll group known for their funky/psychedelic stylings, released their newest EP Sol, and it’s a perfect illustration of the band’s eclectically entertaining approach.
The EP comes two years after their robust self-titled release Forest, City & Friends from 2020—an album that showcased the group’s uniquely diverse approach to songwriting. With Sol, however, the band explores even further sonically in a way that progresses the group into a more ensemble-like aesthetic.
The band’s lyricist, Pete Giordano, shared some of the thematic inspiration behind the EP, saying:
“The title track was inspired by creation/destruction myths, like how the Hindu texts encoded sacred numbers within the Rigveda. It was also inspired by the ‘Five Suns’ myth of the Aztecs and the cycles of destruction that lead to the next cycle, except I changed the destiny of the fifth and final sun in my re-telling.”
With the new EP, Forest City & Friends continues to create an audio-visual experience that is much unlike any other through their explorative instrumental approaches, creative lyricism, and eye-grabbing artworks.
