Sule (Sou-Lay) has been playing music since the age of five. He began
as a student of the piano but quickly switched to the guitar. Singing, songwriting
and a naturally good ear came as gifts to Sule to help him build his musical
career. Sule has completed two albums. "The Fall", a collection of
ten songs dealing with the human condition and all it's frailties, and "Alive" the
follow up album to "The Fall". The style is predominantly rock with
rich undertones ranging from Jazz to Gospel and Blues to Funk, and these have
been masterfully woven into a coherent style unique to Sule.
