Description:
No Soliciting is a Wichita KS-based band that goes for the gut and leaves it all on the stage every live show. We've been together since June 2003 and through some personnel changes now have an unstoppable lineup of amazing musicians that work hard to earn every fan and pack the clubs. Our sound can be described as a mixture of modern rock, pop, soul, jazz, jam, and southern rock; which all comes together to make something new yet familiar at the same time. No Soliciting is a definite 'must-see' act in the Wichita and KS/OK area.
Band Members:
Our vocalist, Greg "Sprout" Manuel has been in multiple bands throughout his life, ranging from blues to ska to metal. His powerful and passionate vocals, with his engaging stage presence, instantly draw an entire club to him. His voice demands to be heard and goes straight for your heart. The guitar player, Geoff Begey, started the band in June 2003 out of musical frustration, seeking out the sounds he heard in his head. His guitar style leans heavily on country and blues, but strays to the experimental side at times. Our bassist, Aaron "Slick" DeHaven influences lean toward the metal side, but it certainly doesn't show in his playing. His style borrows heavily from jazz and funk while being heavily improvisational. Pounding the skins is another founding member of the band, Nathan Roy. A supreme improvisationalist, he plays with such feel and emotion you'd swear his drums were talking to you. His style is all over the map but he is often compared to John Densmore of The Doors. Finally, our keyboardist, Tommy Carlyle. A supreme musician, he hits the right note at the right time, everytime. The most experienced member of the band, he has literally done it and seen it all. From engineer to producer to composer, Tommy is the man. His influences range from John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin) to Jon Lord (Deep Purple) to Gregg Allman (Allman Bros). He is the man that keeps us on track.
