"Maryland Blues" is available now!
Summer Solow is an artist, songwriter, and creative director redefining the boundaries of music and emotion. Hailing from PG County, Maryland, his sound is rooted in both sacred and soulful beginnings—raised in the church by a music-loving mother who nurtured his understanding of sonic depth and performance precision. Summer’s artistry is guided by a cinematic approach: he crafts visuals through sound and uses storytelling to challenge conventional thinking. With no genre off-limits, Summer blends wordplay, melodic textures, and a raw delivery to create a sound that is deeply personal and universally resonant. Kindline Magazine describes his music as “infectious, with a captivating emotional prowess,” and his devotion to authenticity has helped him cultivate a devoted fanbase. Whether paying homage to throwback influences or addressing vulnerable, modern-day truths, Summer’s music feels like a diary entry wrapped in nostalgia. His attention to detail and soul-baring lyrics have drawn comparisons to “your favorite teacher,” guiding listeners through introspection and healing. He’s worked with DMV staples like Rico Nasty and WillThaRapper, and has opened for artists including IDK and Lightshow. From selling out venues like Songbyrd DC and 618 DC to earning praise in The Washington Post, New Noise Magazine, and Medium, Summer’s imprint on the indie and underground scene is undeniable. His highly anticipated LP, “i been going through some things,” released July 30th. Exploring themes of insecurity, relationships, and community, the project offers a raw look into Summer’s psyche—positioning him not just as an artist, but as a voice of his generation.
