From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- For the Safety of Life at Sea Convention, see SOLAS. For the 1999 Spanish film Solas, directed by Benito Zambrano, see Solas (film). Finally, for the better known Irish traditional music group of the same name – go to Solas.
Solas (pronounced SUL-is) is an Irish liturgical music group and resource entity formed in 1991, performing, recording and distributing original church music by local, and mostly Catholic, composers. The group is based in Belfast but has attracted musicians and writers from across the island of Ireland.
Solas was founded by Brian Foley, who coined the name, which comes from an Irish word meaning "light".
