SOLACE

SOLACE is a Nashville-based multidisciplinary artist whose creative life has always lived at the intersection of movement and music. From a young age, both were present — dance as the most visible expression, and music as a deeply personal one. While Solace was unmistakably a dancer to the outside world, singing and songwriting were always part of her inner landscape, nurtured within her family and close creative circles. Raised in a musically supportive home, she learned piano from her grandmother and mother, later teaching herself by ear, and began writing songs around the age of 10–12. Solace pursued dance professionally, moving to Los Angeles at 19 and building an expansive career that led to national recognition as a Top 5 finalist on Season 15 of *So You Think You Can Dance*. Her work has taken her across major stages including the Billboard Awards, BET Awards, ACM Awards, CMT Awards, CMA Country Christmas, and the Latin AMAs. She has performed with artists such as Taylor Swift, Mary J. Blige, Pitbull, Thomas Rhett, Lainey Wilson, and Kristin Chenoweth, and appeared in projects including *May We All* (the country jukebox musical), Dolly Parton’s *Mountain Magic Christmas*, and the upcoming TV series *County Rescue*. As her career evolved, Solace’s voice expanded beyond performance. After returning to Nashville, she stepped into choreography, teaching and creating work that emphasized embodiment, trust, and emotional clarity. Her choreographic and creative leadership earned her a Midsouth Regional Emmy and positioned her as an artist whose strength lies not just in execution, but in vision — someone who can see potential and help bring it to life. Throughout it all, music remained intertwined with her artistry. Solace has performed vocally in musical theater, variety shows in the U.S. and internationally, and live showcases — experiences that consistently affirmed her natural comfort as a singer and storyteller onstage. While dance became the container through which the world knew her, music was always the place she felt most at home. At the RAW Artist Showcase Wild Card show, Solace performs her original music live under her own name — not as a departure from her past, but as an integration of it. This moment marks the alignment of everything she has been building toward: movement, voice, story, and self-trust — finally sharing the same stage.
