Not to be confused with [Sol Band](/source/Sol_Band).

**Sol** was a [Canadian](/source/Canadians) [indie rock](/source/Indie_rock) band in the 1990s. From [Moncton, New Brunswick](/source/Moncton,_New_Brunswick), the band consisted of singer and [bassist](/source/Bass_guitar) Stacy Ricker,[1] [guitarist](/source/Guitar) Robin Anne Ettles, and [drummer](/source/Drum) Chris Mersereau.[2]

[They released their first indie EP, *Small Vacations*, in 1996.](https://musicbrainz.org/release/182a3d02-0c9f-4375-998f-490356501a4e) That same year, they also performed a rendition of "Blue Tattoo" on *[A Tribute to Hard Core Logo](/source/A_Tribute_to_Hard_Core_Logo)*. In 1997, they released their full-length debut, *Lucinda*.

The band played locally in New Brunswick[2][3] and toured Canada several times, and had singles on campus and community radio. They won an [East Coast Music Award](/source/East_Coast_Music_Award) for Best Alternative Artist in 1999,[citation needed] but disbanded due to creative differences the same year. A live album was released in 2000.[4]

All three members continue to make music on their own.
