The Empty Pockets are a Chicago based quartet blending blues, Americana, folk, and rock and roll with a streak of roots soul. The band features Josh Solomon on guitar and vocals, Erika Brett on keyboards and vocals, Nate Bellon on bass and vocals, and Adam Balasco on drums.
Known for their electrifying live shows and tight four part interplay, The Empty Pockets have earned two Billboard number one Blues Albums and built a loyal international following through relentless touring across the United States and Europe. They have shared stages with artists including Kenny Loggins, Al Stewart and Dickey Betts while developing a reputation as a true band in the classic sense of the word, each member contributing as a multi instrumentalist, vocalist, and songwriter.
Rooted in musicianship and connection, The Empty Pockets create performances that are dynamic, human, and joyfully unpredictable, balancing technical precision with warmth and spontaneity. Their shows invite audiences into a communal experience that feels both timeless and immediate.
