DESCRIPTION:
Originally from Duluth, Minnesota, Phil Solem's beginnings in music date back to his childhood, playing a piano in his grandmother's basement. But it was in the late 1970s that Phil moved from Minneapolis to Los Angeles, looking for a place in the emerging rock & roll scene. Phil was in and out of bands like 'Android' and 'Loose Change' and eventually ended up in the band Great Buildings, who released one album on Columbia in 1981, Apart From The Crowd. Although Great Buildings broke up shortly thereafter, Solem remained pals with felow bandmate Danny Wilde.REMBRANDTS
By 1990, Phil and Danny were working together again. They recorded a demo album in Danny's Southern California garage/studio that was released 'as is', as The Rembrandts. The album landed in the Billboard hot 100, thanks in part to the Top 20 hit Just The Way It Is, Baby. The Rembrandts were also receiving substantial critical accliam for their debut album and 1992's follow up, Untitled. In 1995, The Rembrandts became most famous for a song that was never intended to be on an album. Although the duo had recorded the 42 second theme I'll Be There For You for the show Friends, it was never intended to be a full length song. But the label insisted the duo record a full length version and include it at the end of the already finished album, LP. The rest is history.... BEYOND
Phil also has a rock band, called THRUSH, with John Fields and Michael Bland. They released one album in 2000. In 2001, he reformed with Danny Wilde as The Rembrandts to release the album Lost Together, perhaps the duo's best album. In 2006, Rhino released a Greatest Hits collection, which included material from all four Rembrandts albums and two tracks from the Great Buildings album Apart From The Crowd. In 2007, Phil is releasing his first ever solo album, appropriately titled Phil Solem - SOLO.
