If you are a regular reader of Forte (and only the best-looking people are), you would have caught the recent interview Natalie Rogers undertook with the wonderful Sol Nation. The band recently released their debut album Melting Pot, an album a long time in the making. “It’s taken a while to get everything to fall into play because a lot of things have to go right at the right time, which is tricky to do – but it’s coming to fruition. We were holding out for the right songs, the right line-up, the best producer, studio, distribution and publicity – and it looks like it’s paying off.” Good news for them, good news for us.
