Biografia:
Misturando um sincero amor e respeito pelas tradições da música irlandesa com um senso de aventura melódica e instrumental que sugere um claro foco no futuro, Solas tem se estabilizado como um dos melhores grupos de folk celta trabalhando nos Estados Unidos, com mais de um escritor descrevendo-os como talvez a melhor banda tradicional irlandesa existente.
Solas é a ideia do multi-instrumentista Seamus Egan. Nascido na Pensilvânia em 1969, Seamus mudou-se para a Irlanda com sua família quando ele tinha três anos de idade

No Forgotten Man
Solas
[CAPO ON 3RD FRET]
G
From the woods of California to the banks of Ohio
C G
I've always worked each day God sent as best I'm able
G
While both me and the crops they failed, those damn wolves came to my door
C G
I just couldn't put no food upon the table
D C
Time to step up, boy, and be a man.
G
So they stuck you 'neath a helmet and put a shovel in your hand
C G
Sayin' it's time to step up, boy, your family needs ya'
G
And though we struggled hard to save, they say our money turned no good
C G
And that there's not gonna' be enough to feed ya'
D C
And they say it never happened 'cause they can.
C G
So they rob us of our livin', kick us down with shiny shoes
C G
God knows we've paid for our dreamin'
C G Em
And now they're trying to tell us that they'll own us 'till the end
D C
Someone better pray that luck means justice
G G//// G//// G////
'Cause I'll be no forgotten man.
G
So they stuck me 'neath a helmet, put a gun into my hand
C G
Saying time to step up, boy, your country needs ya'.
G
They rounded us like slaughter, they shipped us all to hell
C G
Sayin' what doesn't kill you boy is gonna' free ya'.
D C //// C//// C////
Pretend it didn't happen if you can.
C G
But I did my share of killin' and I took my share of war
C G
God knows I bled for my leader
C G Em
And now you're trying to tell me my enemy's my friend
D C
They'll only pray as long as there is freedom
G
But I'll be no forgotten man.
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
G
These days I wheel the city, where the streets don't know my name
C G
They'll say time to move on boy 'cause no one needs you.
G
In the shot glass there's no mercy, in your bottle only blame
C G
Though you shout the deeds you done no one believes ya'
D C//// C////
Come, man, spare a nickel if you can
C G
Cause all I've got's a story, no kin to call my own
C G
No photographs to pin upon a feelin'
C G Em
But what you're trying to tell me makes the truth too hard to bend
D C
And maybe there's just too much made of freedom
G
Then I'll be no forgotten man.
D C
'Cause one man's chains become another's freedom
G
So I'll be no forgotten man.
D C
'Cause one man's chains becomes another's freedom
G G//// G//// G////
So you'll be no forgotten man.
