Debuting their new album ‘Read the Room’ Soylent Green is an instrumental sextet making music on Kaurna Land. The band springs from Jazz roots and incorporates hip-hop and dance sensibilities to create music which is soulful and full of groove. The musicianship of the group is only matched by the infectiousness of the rhythms and melodies which invite you to be a part of the musical conversations on stage.
Their debut self-titled album was released in 2022 and was nominated for AMP Album of the Year as well as a South Australian Music Award for Jazz. The band has performed at WOMADelaide via NSS Studio, Wangaratta Festival of Jazz and Blues and a sell out crowd at the inaugural Adelaide Jazz Festival.
